There is a line here though. I think a lot of people have seen what happens when you set a bunch of JR devs loose in a node/ruby code base with all that tooling. It goes about as well as giving a lead footed suburbanite an F1 car.
If you work in an agency (new every week) or in a place where you have a high number of jr devs then a framework makes a fair bit of sense. But at that point are your experienced devs being productive or being babysitters?
I think I would rather babysit a bunch of jr devs working in Go where correcting their issues is educational, rather than dealing with babysitting JR devs and high speed stupidity in something like rails...
My experience is that there is a great, big in-between where folks are just chugging along and aren't thinking about project/codebase level architectural decisions. Without that active thought and foresight, you end up shooting yourselves in the foot, a bit. With DI frameworks, the _default_ ends up typically being the right thing to do so it unburdens people from a particular slice of cognitive load.
