title: Are there any reasons not to use Rails Migrations on production DB?
body: <p>The only danger I can think of is a developer using Capistrano to rollback a migration on the production database.
  Are there any other risks you can think of and what's the best way to avoid accidental migrations/database reset, etc?</p>
  
  <p><strong>edit:</strong> We do have daily backups in place. I would rephrase my question this way: Is there any benefit in not using migrations at all (manual schema changes only)? And do you know any Rails teams doing it?</p>
