Well, you could have made the greatest plugin, web application or library in the world but the moment you slap Twitter Bootstrap on your site for it, all initial value is lost and people just see a “cookie cutter website”.
I disagree. Bootstrap is there precisely for the people that do not wish to spend their effort on re-implementing reasonable web design techniques, yet wish their website to look "good". Sure, if you're selling yourself as a web-design expert you'd want to either completely customise it or make your own, but I did not get the impression you were restricting your comments to those.
Perhaps you're aiming your criticism at a completely different type of person, but I'd be interested in your critique (or otherwise) of these two, who clearly did not go the extra mile, and have not even used Bootstrap:
