Some languages and ecosystems can be more helpful, though, even if none can save you. Rails is memorization-heavy and doesn't have static types to aid in navigation & reading. Its runtime auto-magic even resists grepping. Auto-imports mean you don't even get a decent list of which sources are contributing to a given file's behavior.

It's also the case that different teams can write it pretty differently, depending on gem choices and which Rails features they lean on. Plenty of other languages and ecosystems are like that, too, but all the above stuff means Rails is exceptionally bad, in that regard.
