It's because Cucumber's Rails support configures ActionController to
send all errors straight through.
See cucumber/rails/world.rb
Patches and suggestions about how to improve this are welcome.
(In most cases it's easier to spot errors when exceptions ripple through)
Make it a configuration option? Or catch it with a proxy that
inspects the exception then passes it *back* to Rails, and provide
matchers or formatting options that display Cucumber's analysis only
when the user wants it?
I'm with Jeff on this: RecordNotFound isn't necessarily an "error,"
it's just an exception. One that will frequently come up in normal
user interaction. A well-behaved app will do appropriate things with
that exception and Cucumber should be able to test for those
appropriate things. A testing framework that disrupts the application
behavior cannot test it.
Good points. Please create a Lighthouse ticket for this. I'm looking
forward to concrete suggestions about how to make this configurable
and patches I can pull in :-)

Instead of creating a new ticket we should probably continue the
discussion on this ticket:
