I don't like the suggestion that if I don't care for rails I must be using it wrong. I have worked with many technologies over the years and I know which ones I like and which ones I don't.

I suspect it is an issue of preference. I am sure it is possible to be productive using Rails, but the interface style and overall structure is a bit heavy handed for my taste. I prefer tools which stay out of my way and I'm not terribly fond of working inside an "ecosystem".
