The problem with PHP in this case has nothing to do with types. So their reasoning was wrong from the very beginning. I suspect that no amount of "catching up" will help here, just like no amount of development will turn future axes into screwdrivers. They'll still work like perfectly good axes, though. Just like PHP will still be able to handle HTTP requests perfectly well.
