I think it's the exact opposite - the less C code we need the better.
Developing C code is more work. Maintaining C code is more work.
Distributing C code is more complicated. The less this is needed, the
faster PHP is, the better for everybody (except C programmers ;-) )

Unless the C code already exists and is already tested, as is the case
with existing PECL modules. Wasn't that the original intent with PHP,
to stitch together C libraries that you could use more easily?
