What is this... comparing a framework with a language? Compare Laravel with Rails, or PHP with RUBY... not RAILS.

While the use of terms rails and ruby is confused in the article, the actual content is using two frameworks with similar goals and similar sounding philosophies to compare what what the languages can offer for a framework developer.
That to me sounds like a fair way to approach it. Having said that, my experience of the PHP framework is this post, and while the goals sound similar, the teams behind them could be interpreting them in very different ways, which wooild lead to the differences seen.
The homepage for the Flow framework has this in the title:
TYPO3 Flow Enterprise PHP Framework
It's "We want to be java but not be java" all over again. Which means it's Zend framework all over again.
