1) You love the Ruby programming language.

2) It's battle-tested. Tried and true. Batteries included. Can have a web app with most functionality needed running in minutes.

3) There are more reasons, but there are other good options as well. No reason to use Rails if you're not interested in Ruby.

Is there a reason to use rails over Django? Doesn’t seem like it based on your list.

Ruby. It's a uniquely expressive language (IMHO).
