Each programming & scripting language has its strengths and areas of focus. Just because another language implements a feature, does not mean the rest should follow suit. What you fail to realize that every feature adds to the language complexity, making it more difficult to use, harder to debug and ultimately makes it slower. PHP's biggest strength since day one was simplicity, to sacrifice that, to allow someone to use something that has been hammered into their head in their CS class is beyond silly.
