I would take issue with your description of CF. While it's more approachable for inexperienced coders, it makes things easier for experienced application developers as well. I've worked with ASP.NET and Java, and for most web applications, I think CF has significant advantages over both of them. And as hot as RoR is right now, it's a hard sell in the enterprise and CF isn't.
