This is about as ridiculous as trying out one bad programming language and then writing an article titled "Why I Hate Programming Languages". Clearly the author has a problem with one particularly bad set of frameworks he's dealing with now, and one set of framework-making mentalities. Yes, there are bad frameworks. There are good frameworks too. I don't imagine anyone draws their own buttons on the screen anymore. To continue the discussion in any general format is useless, since there are countless examples of bad frameworks and countless counter-examples of good frameworks. A more compelling discussion would be one on what makes certain frameworks useful rather than trying to place a final value judgement on the idea entirely.
