I guess in the end it's all about a companies culture and economically it boils down to "can I sell it". I want to add some random thoughts:

- Probably PHP wasn't your first language, you came from somewhere maybe Perl, maybe Java. There were reasons why you'ved switched. - Is switching so hard? In my experience it is not! Good programmers are good programmers in every language. Get an expert to make your transition as smooth as possible. - You do sell innovation - why not have an elite unit that can be with the new stuff. You can do 80% in your biz with stuff you know.
