Who are we talking about? I'm not sure this has been clearly identified
yet.

The Tor website needs to be easily reproduced on as many different
mirrors as possible. Using a website generator that creates static
content is the easiest way to create a website that can be easily
synchronized on multiple servers.

For the Tor website, I don't really see what could require content
that needs to be generated on the fly.
