Thanks. I'm not really a rails person, so forgive me if I have some questions. Am I correct in interpreting that thread as DHH not wanting to support multiple ruby package managers in the rails codebase? In particular, DHH has 'blessed' rbenv and that commit wants to support rvm?

If this is the case, then I have to wonder: why is there any dependency on a package manager at all in the rails codebase? This just seems odd to me, and perhaps is the source of the conflict. E.g. people are fine with 'omakase' frameworks, but these menus typically don't include toolchain dishes. It would be like going into a restaurant and being told that you must use chopsticks, no forks allowed.
