No downvote here. I'm by far no Rails guru - I've done one moderate-sized project in it (as an apprentice to someone far more experienced) and a couple of smallish projects, Rails feels brittle. I thought I was pretty alone in that thinking, but based on your rant above, I'm not 100% on my own. I've gotten used to Grails/GORM, which has its own set of issues, for sure, but has always felt more natural.
