PHP vs Node js... Let's be honest: Node.js couldn't kill PHP. Why?

I disagree. I've been using PHP for about eleven years now, even since the bad old days of PHP3, and I have never used, and generally advise against using, wordpress. PHP will be around long after wordpress.

I do concede that if PHP went away, WP would somehow survive, like some kind of post-nuclear cockroach.

I'm in the same boat. I cranked a lot of things out with CodeIgniter back in the day. Expression Engine is superior to WordPress but if you like either I'd suggest Craft CMS now and moving forward. For general apps, I use Laravel or Lumen. And React PHP for scraping. And don't forget The League [1]. Lots of great PHP stuff out there.
