The absurdity of WordPress FTP

Why does the WordPress world insist on using FTP for everything? Coming from the Rails world, it seems crazy to give someone FTP credentials to modify your code directly in a production environment.

For any remotely serious WordPress project, I would expect the developers to at least be using git and probably some kind of deployment script. My weapon of choice is Capistrano, but whatever works.
