This indeed is very good question.

I'm not sure how things are elsewhere in the world but in the case of 
gem's on a rock in the middle of the north atlantic ocean , everybody is 
using bundler with nobody wanting to go back to non existing or not 
current gem's in distributions and or having to manually chase down 
components and resolve their dependency's.

They prefer spending that time actually hacking or drinking beer or both.
