Does the fact that this site has "index.php" in all its URLs bother anyone else?

Nope not really. Probably only tards who can't seem to see that most of the successful web runs on PHP, not on their Brogrammer flavour-of-the-week language or framework.
I tend to be rather language agnostic, but URLs should generally be a descriptor of the content, and leak as few technological details as possible.

In general, having the URL include a specific implementation quirk, such as index.php makes it more difficult to have URLs that are stable years into the future, after you may have changed technology stacks.
