I think your issues are the reason there are other alternative frameworks that have come out; and there are a lot of them. Use one of the alternative .NET web frameworks if you don't like MVC proper.

I'm not a fan a Razor either. It's code-centric instead of html-centric. Again, use an alternative view engine like Spark. I think a better recommendation is DON'T PUT LOGIC INTO YOUR VIEWS. You will rarely run into issues if you follow that.

Any issues I've found I have also found fixes for relatively easily. If you run into something that is a framework bug that you can't fix, call up MS and they will issue you a patch that fixes the problem you're having. MS has great support, so don't be afraid to use it.
