I think that was OP's point though. Bootstrap is a framework, so please use it as a framework, not as a finished solution.

And I don't think lasting impressions are determined that much by content. I recognize pages by a sort of screenshot in my mind, it's a bit like recognizing faces. Happens too quickly for the content to come into play.

It's a finished solution and a framework, it can be picked on what you need from it. Not being trying obtuse, I just see a lot of criticism levelled at Bootstrap for creating similar looking pages, but for most of those pages they're primarily focussed around displaying content in a nice way (documentation for example).
