From what I've seen this this is not the attitude most boostrappers have.

Sure, sometimes you have bootstrapped companies that turn into VC-backed hypergrowth companies but there seems to be a shift away from "grow or die" for bootstrapped companies taking funding.

that's pretty much what the comment above is saying. Bootstrapped founders may take money, if they aren't told "you need rocket growth now"
