rails apps are also very large, making them annoying/difficult to bundle up with other modules such as the nodejs Kue module which uses express for the UI. Rails modularity is quite terrible, Drupal does this much better, but yes you have to be creative with Express, which is only difficult if you're not creative. Application requirements are significantly different, myself and many others prefer a "start small" approach vs the "start huge" approach.
