PHP becomes a complex language with each update. For what reason? Its application is still limited to the web, mostly.

A lot of C# and Java code is oriented towards web backends, too. Which are quite big and complex. So it seems natural that languages in the same design space (trad OO) converge on similar features. I think the only exception these days is Go.

I think these days you could change "You can write Fortran in any language" to "You can structure your code like Spring in any language"…
