The way it is now is the result of usage patterns and hype.

Just from memory, and I'm talking about usage, not existence:

First was the original (Bourne) shell, then came the Korn shell with some
improvements you see now in the "Bourne again" shell. Then there was the perl hype.
Then there was a short hype about Tcl, when after installation you had to build your
kernel, and could do "make xconfig" (Tcl/Tk script). Only then came PHP as "private
home page generator" or so. No wonder PHP is not used much on the command line.
Python was last to come.

Yes I think PHP Cli has got all it takes for programming, even signal handling. But
in system administration the bash is the shell that starts Linux up. And for
applications don't forget C, C++, Java, Pascal, and many many many ...
