PHP Doesn't Suck Anymore
Debugging is pretty easy with something like Ray (https://myray.app/) or Laravel Herd (https://herd.laravel.com/, despite its name runs differnet php apps just fine).
When it coems to running different PHP versions, modern PHP development has largely moved to using Docker (ddev, for example: https://ddev.com/) for that, and there's plenty Docker images for old PHP versions so it's a non-issue. I'd also imagine it be difficult to get many other outdated programming languages via a package manager.
There's now the PHP Foundation, which while relatively new in its formation, has significantly boosted PHP development and I'd recommend donating if improving the language is important to you.

This command generates a file in database/schema and deletes all my migration files. Before squashing the migrations, it was taking 11.031 seconds according to well placed Ray call in the RefreshDatabase trait:
