It is a matter of stability in PHP. Bcrypt has
built-in support in PHP, as
does PBKDF2, whereas scrypt requires an extension. It should be noted,
however, that the patch that was merged implements an extensible password
API, so it would be trivial to implement scrypt support if we wanted
to.
Yup: "figure out what general case your particular problem is a special case
of, and then implement the general case".
Cheers,
