Frameworks and programming languages are useful for anyone that uses them. A CS degree on the other hand teaches you a lot more than you really need to know (compiler design, theorey of automata, etc) as a software engineer and so it's kinda wasteful. Sure, it's interesting and fun to learn as an academic but it's not actually useful. The nice thing about bootcamps is they teach you just what you need to learn and nothing more, nothing less. There's few Software engineering jobs that utilize the full scope (or even half of it) of CS knowledge you gain from a CS degree.
