copy files deploy

That one is not great, unlike first two points. For one, larger bespoke programms need CI (and would benefit from CD). There is linting/type checking/testing to be done.

Secondly, "copy files deploy" is cheating. Somebody else did the job (hoster) and we are claiming that it is somehow benefit of PHP itself. Well? Did hoster do nothing? Really nothing at all? Nope. On top of that. Performant set up for PHP nowadays do not look that much differently then say, setup for Python.

Two first points are very good. Shared nothing architecture preclude existence of subtle bugs. While multi-threading in mutable, imperative code is the definition of subtle bugs. Those two keep PHP relevant and even on top of it's game (in certain domains).
