In many ways, Rails is the new VB. A little hyperbolic, perhaps, but I see a similar mindset when people ignore the language Ruby and live only in the world of Rails, eventually leading to shitty code.
It doesn't necessarily lead to shitty code. There, it is a question of how good he is a _race car driving_.
(For those that don't want to click the link: (turing-unaware) race car drivers are programmers that know a single high-level technology very well, but are unaware of the things that the technology is based on. Somehow like Formula 1-drivers.)
