I think what developers need to understand is that these large frameworks aren't there for them. Developers are not the primary audience or the primary benefactor. The primary benefactor of these frameworks are employers. The large challenge employers face is where to find developer talent then how to select it. Developers then become a replaceable commodity selected on the basis not of capabilities or potential but solely on the basis of current compatibility on a bell curve. That devalues the better half of developers. It ultimately costs the employers more by allowing employment for people who otherwise are not capable at interference to future cost saving ventures from creative solutions. Also consider that employers are still reliant on recruiters to find potential developer candidates, so frameworks don't even help with identifying talent.
