Interesting. My own biggest gripe with rails is, by far and large, that any project that even so much as lightly touched the js ecosystem will become unbuildable within about 2 months if you don't tweak things. And for Rails, a huge driver of this is the sass compiler, which (afaict) will download a hosted binary component for recent enough versions but will fall back to building it if it's too old. And "too old" appears to be measured in months. But it's far from the only thing that breaks it.
