Frameworks allow you to shoot yourself in the foot with a Tank.

Perfect example. You nailed it!

(Anyone close to familiar with tanks will know it will take quite some effort compared to any of the smaller alternatives ;-)

But you can easily get yourself crushed by a tank, and also "why oh WHY DID YOU DRIVE A TANK TO PICK UP OUR KIDS FROM THE SCHOOL?!?"

Have my upvote.

Then again, most frameworks are more comparable to cars than tanks and people use cars all the time to pick up kids at school even if they could just walk.

Convenient you know and less chance of getting mistaken for a hipster :-]
