There are namespaces, there just aren't standards like Python.
And there aren't many good Ruby developers. There are too many noobs who write Ruby code that make my eyes bleed. I know, because I have to see this at work and they're supposedly "rockstar" developers. Ha! I swear most so-called "engineers": 0. don't grok software engineering, 1. weren't formally-trained in software engineering AND computer science, and 2. happily push shitty code that there will be no incentive to refactor through automated means.
If you want to enforce coding standards in Ruby, you better learn LISP / S-expressions, because that's what Rubocop uses.
