I like your post. I agree with the fact that a framework does restrict your control and creativity. However, what you get in place of that is standardization. So if you have 10 people working on a project you don't want them all to be doing their own thing. You want a very standardized code base that is easy to understand by everyone. Easier to maintain, change, and, upgrade.
