Over the last few years, I've found that most sites clients want can be built with static site generators and JavaScript. PHP is also great and easily hosted! But most times when there's a sprinkling of dynamism needed, it's OK if its happens at build/run time rather than when the page is rendered on a seever. This leads to faster page load and less to worry about security-wise. No shade! I've just been finding this has lead to good outcomes for me.

You mean to say some basic company site, blog or photo gallery that only gets updated once/twice a month, with zero dynamic content otherwise doesnt need a whole LAMP stack?

Honestly though with GH/CF pages type hosting and how simple static sites can be its a direction I'm ever thankful things have been moving. Just seems so much less painful for those who arent here to be security experts and just want a bloody site that 'just works'
