Sure, the framework's way might not always be the best way of doing things but I prefer to just accept it and move on. It saves spending time debating, deciding, experimenting with different ways of structuring code, when it probably doesn't really make that big of a difference in the end anyway. Most web applications are really not that different from each other.

On top of that it prevents really bad coders from rolling their own in a really bad way. Remember when everybody was coding their own MVC framework in PHP?

As for C# not parsing JSON correctly, that seems more like a problem with a language or library not anything to do with frameworks?

I overly simplified, but basically the issue came with having to figure out how the route was binding, then finding the class that was handling that binding, then finding the class the handled the parsing, etc.

It's not intrinsic to all frameworks I'm sure, but imposed structure like that does inherently lead to bureaucracy, which can make figuring stuff out difficult.
