No, quite the opposite.

The PHP project is pretty terrible at running infrastructure, as
infrastructure needs to have people available to work on it
immediately when there are issues, which is not a good match a
volunteer project. There is also the problem that a lot of maintenance
needed for sites (or things like PEAR/PECL) are very boring, and so
they are allowed to rot for years.

Even if we had the resources to host something ourselves, doing so
would come at an opportunity cost of not doing something that provides
better value for the time.
