I think there is a disconnect between what many of readers who have commented here think of when they hear standardization and what the author intended. Bootstrap has not introduced a standard in the way that html5 is a standard. It is a standard in the sense of a common vocabulary shared between users. Anyone who has worked with bootstrap for more than a couple of days will instantly recognize that a div with a span6 class is half the width of the page. One of my biggest frustrations at my job is not having bootstrap and not having that common vocabulary keeping things in order. This makes the design specs vague to work with, difficult to implement and the end result is a ton of one off styling reinventing the wheel instead of reusing a handful of global styles.
