Or the situation 5 years ago when you had to choose between 50
different Content Management Systems.

Also now, you get to make TWO choices: which PHP framework, coupled
with which AJAX framework? At least thanks to PDO you don't have to
choose which database to use any more... oh wait, you still do.

I guess being a developer has always been about making these kinds of
choices. And don't forget the hacker's way: the mere fact that all of
these frameworks exist means that it must be pretty easy to create
your own...
