If a codebase is already launched with bootstrap 3, what would be benefit of converting? (genuine question)

There's a few refinements in BS4. Refinements that become quickly inavouable. First and foremost the new flexbox directives all grid related stuff (mobile first). That's why I systematically migrate all my projects to BS4 even though it's not 100% needed.

Bootstrap 4 is built with Sass (Bootstrap 3's source code was built with Less). For my team, most of us had been using the Sass version of Bootstrap 3, and we decided to take Bootstrap 4 and create a customized version for our team. That task was made a lot easier with the source code being written in Sass.
In my experience, back when the switch from Bootstrap 2 to 3 happened, a big reason was being able to use sites like StackOverflow for answers.
Over time, all the answers became about Bootstrap 3 and it quickly became difficult to find help about Bootstrap 2.
