This is correct.
...it is also why php is not really any significantly better choice than any other framework/language combination.
The benefits of ‘plain php’ (simplicity) disappear quite quickly when you’re doing anything non trivial.
I would never choose php without one of those framework stacks; it doesn’t scale, its prone to hideous security issues and its a fugly mess of reinventing the wheel.
Frankly, anyone doing this these days has no idea what they’re doing.
