It's hard not to.

Comparing Go ans PHP a few years ago would mean to compare Go and PHP/Apache or PHP/Nginx, because PHP could not run its own server.

It's like comparing Git and Subversion, where you have to explain concepts like staging.

Or IntelliJ and Eclipse, where you have to explain workspaces.
