Let me heat that up for you... 
There's more to the site than what you see... plus it's for maintenance issues as well. I have plans for my site over the next couple of months that would be a lot easier with PHP, including some dynamic content.

SSI makes site-wide changes so much easier, which is the main reason why everything is going PHP. There are already some 'hidden' PHP scripts available only to me, with more to come.

Also, a couple of pages will be going dynamic in about a months time as I write my own content management system to post news articles in MYSQL. No, I will not use Joomla, it is much too advanced for what I'm doing, yet doesn't give me the flexibility I desire. Writing your own content manager means you can tailor it to your own needs and it is very flexible. Trust me, I have experience with Joomla, and while it is good, that isn't what I want (yes I want a good site, that's not what I meant)

tl;dr Doing it for SSI to make site-wide changes easier, gradually implementing dynamic content, and a content management system hand-written by me.
