Perhaps it would've been better to say "it is _available_ on more 
platforms". No doubt given enough dedication you can probably get both 
Python and PHP to _run_ on most platforms. However as an example, Python 
(albeit an older version) is running happily on Nokia S60 phones, whereas 
AFAIK there are no PHP running on said phones.

Also Python supports all the major GUI bindings whereas PHP only supports 
GTK (AFAIK).
