Wow, thanks for your comprehensive takedown.
I was aware of some of these issues but not aware of the huge developer dislike... it does make a difference to the ability of a system such as Drupal to be able to capitalise on WordPress issues.

To be fair, it's not universally disliked... after all, some 25-30% of those survey respondents still like it, as does at least one other person in this thread. It's just more widely disliked than most other frameworks. Despite that, for something this old and bloated, it still has a healthy ecosystem and lots of developers and conferences and vendors and such. I'm just not one of them, lol.
