Personally I've never felt the change in bottom bracket flexing, but I always feel how different frames feel on certain bits of road. Maybe I'm just not outputting enough power, I don't know.

I have an oldie aluminum one that is so flexible that I don't like to drive it, an oldie steel one that is as rigid as they come and my 'regular' bike (and older carbon frame) is now living elsewhere so I can't compare them side-by-side anymore but it was pretty stiff as well. Tube diameter for the tubes connecting to the bottom bracket can make a big difference too. The tandem we have (a Koga 26") is pretty flexible too but it is kind of logical for being aluminum and that long, you can really tell if you're both pushing hard, the whole thing warps. But better bending than breaking!
