It has the advantage that it does backwards compatibility well with advance notice when a feature is about to disappear This means that if I need to upgrade my PHP application, I am sure to have a version that supports both the new interfaces and the old deprecated interfaces and more importantly it means that if I have a number of different apps that I need installed, I am not likely to need to move them each into their own VM. Python as an example of everything I hate doesn't even try. Their "fix" is to install a local copy of python with the app which is great until something needs a security update and now someone must upgrade each app's environment individually.
