It means that being easy to use is a desirable trait if you want a sane development experience. Having to go through bs hoops to use some language/tool/etc can drive you insane.

And you'll find more or less the same amount of insanity in C or Javascript, as you will in PHP.
And in PHP it's mostly moot, because the insanity is in corner cases and stuff that's trivial to avoid.
