I like their concept of bulding controller, and routing acton names.
The db abstraction is nice but what I lack is strict separation of
application elements.


I like working with aplications that actually DON'T have direct access
to data .

When I write basic logic of an aplication I prefer to work with objects
(say: of a Document class) that know their data container mapings (ie
which fields in which tables reflect which object variables) and public
metods (ie load() save() delete()) that i can use.

but In CI its so easy to write:

$this->db->query('SELECT name, title, email FROM my_table');

it might be a bliss for someone, but, Idon't like it.

When I'm deciding to use framework I do not want freedom to do whatever
I want. I want clear information where to put different parts of the
code. CI is strict about it. you could puyt everything in Contoller and
it would work
