That does not mirror my experience. What I did see a lot was either spinning wheels because multiple people had divergent ideas about how the complexity should be managed, or spinning wheels because people on the project did not want to work with Rails at all and just wanted a rewrite of everything in something else.
Complexity does not have to be an explosion, but it always will be if the team designs in a way that is not coherent - and coherence is hard to achieve.
