Life is filled with simple, easy, cheap, popular paths that lead to ruin. PHPs initial simplicity does not make it a good choice.

Looking for happiness? Heroine "just works".

Hungry and poor? Eating McDonald's three meals a day is cheap and easy.

Exactly that is why both Heroine and McDonald's sell.

It might sound scary. But in reality 'merit' is not the only motivating factor for adoption of anything.
