Please explain reasoning behind CakePHP having a poor design. I'm curious as most people that say a framework or tool sucks actually are just using the framework/tool in an incorrect way, and there is frequently an elegant way to tackle their issues. This applies to more than just CakePHP, mind you.
Sure, but you don't always have the time to figure out what that elegant way is. This is the reason people complain about the complexity of frameworks.
