I don't think reinventing the wheel is the right approach. I think careful analysis of bugs and design deficiencies the likes of which you experienced before jumping in and using the framework is the way to do it.

This is why I absolutely love seeing hate filled developer rants about technology with deep dive analyses and links to bug trackers. That's how I was saved from learning Ruby on Rails back in 2008 when most developers gushed about how awesome it after reacting to its slick marketing and building a tiny website in 5 minutes.

I learned Django instead. I'm cognizant of its flaws but I'm still relatively happy with it.

I think the designers originally intended it to just be "rails for python" but they recognized the pain caused by rails magic and subsequently worked on making django less magical.
