Perhaps that's why there's such a low visibility of PHP on Windows. Whether there is or isn't a lot of Production Windows/PHP machines is one thing -- Whether we should discourage their existence by not being flexible on the backwards-compatibility of .php3 in a no-brainer installer is another. I think marking it as "deprecated, use for backwards-compatibility" is the right answer, IMNSHO.
