So what?  I don't want to run multiple Rails apps on my dev machine 
simultaneously.  (I do use vhosts for other purposes, but I generally 
set them up with Webmin.)

Again, would be great on a server, but useless on a dev box.

Maybe if I had a day job with a computer that I only used for Web 
development, I'd agree.  But as a freelancer with a multipurpose dev 
laptop, Passenger just seems like a complete waste of disk space. 
(Servers are a different matter, of course.)

I can't think of a good reason to use Passenger on my dev machine, and 
this thread hasn't presented any so far.
