Ask HN: Why isn't rspec the default in Rails 5?

I'm personally of the opinion that rspec[0] is the greatest thing to happen to unit tests since the Test Anything Protocol.

I'd like to know: why doesn't `rails new <path>` default to using `rspec-rails`[1]?

Why isn't `factory_girl_rails`[2] already there?

How about `database_cleaner`[3], `rails-controller-testing`[4] and `shoulda-matchers`[5]?
