PHP's PDO database abstraction layer actually escapes by default under the hood, but it presents a prepared statement interface.

You can turn that off. It was there historically because mysql didn't always support it, and it was slow when it was first rolled out.

Other languages old enough to have been around prior to all this have the same history. Perl, Python, etc.
