I feel this way too sometimes, but I've come to relate it more to the fact that Meteor is relatively new, and the community has collectively built relatively few complex apps, so the documentation, available blog posts, Stack Overflow questions and answers, wikis, books, tutorials and videos just aren't really in place yet for that kind of architecture. There are more and more solutions and patterns emerging every day as more and more people try building complex stuff in Meteor, though. Just look at some of the packages by Arunoda like fast-render, subs-manager, and kadira: all designed to ease development around common bottlenecks you run into as you start to scale up. In other words, I think this problem will eventually go away as more people keep trying. Just like it did with Ruby on Rails 8 years ago :)
