Some genius ported the Spring framework to PHP (and called it Symfony) and we have to live with the BS from Java world in PHP land. Anemic models and lots of indirection. What a sad world we live in.

I did a lot of Java in the past, and ended up in PHP lately. Funny how PHP feels like 'I wanna be Java when I grow up', while Java (quarkus) says 'I dont wanna be Java anymore'.

Then again,Java itself has Spring, starting out as '4 classes for an EJB is insane architecture overload' and ended up in dynamic injection architecture astronaut land.
