It was in the title because many of the snooty programmers who think they're so much smarter than the .NET guys, and who go off and build overly-complicated things that don't work just for the sake of building something complicated, are in love with Ruby on Rails. It doesn't attack RoR so much as a subset of the RoR community.

It pretty much abstains from the topic of RoR as a language and framework.

I think you're spot on. And I'm a .Net developer (a bumbling fool no doubt). But really, you grasp the point best so far.
