I think us folks who like frameworks are building enterprise web applications. I've been using strictly FB since 1999, but if I am charged with making a 7 page website for my neighbor's kid of course I'm not going to use a framework. But in a corporate enterprise situation, the maintainability is not debatable! I have been able to walk up to very complex FB applications and in 30 minutes be able to make effective changes for them. I have also worked on client applications using non-frameworked code that takes days or even WEEKS to effectively be able to make changes to. And when it comes to any significant functionality added or changed, in the spaghetti-code situation I or most consultants would only take the job on the premise of rewriting the whole thing. I'm no business expert, but which situation would you rather be in if you own the company? I think we're comparing apples and oranges is what I'm saying. I agree a framework may not be the way to go for a one-off simple website. But for an enterprise web application a framework will significantly add to the value of the software. And the "Fusebox is slow" statement is very outdated.
