If nothing else, it's easier to override with your own styles.
Exactly. In BS 2 it was such a pain to remove the gradients from buttons, the box-shadows from inputs and all the other extra UI effects that you didn't want to use.

#22Meh, at some point they should start to realise that you can't change everything every release and expect everyone to keep up. It feels like it's becoming more of a chore than the real initial win it was able to deliver on first release.
The company I work for uses several versions of Bootstrap 2 and we have no issue dealing with it. Newer projects will use BS3, but we don't need nor feel the need to update every project.

#23I wish the examples used more semantically meaningful html5 elements where appropriate, but that's not too big of a deal.

#24I don't think I get the new grid system. .col-12 .col-lg-8 What's going on here? If I were to guess, I'm assuming it's going to be 12 columns if its a mobile, 8 if a tablet or a desktop. In what situation would that be useful? It looks like you'd end up with some pretty complicated mark-up quickly like that.
A little further down, there's examples: http://getbootstrap.com/css/#grid
They suggest that it doesn't end up awfully complicated. I could see how you could use it to make something complicated, but it seems to me that if you use it sparingly at the top-most level of markup, it shouldn't be too bad.

#28Other than the grid, it looks like all the classes and markup are the same. I wish the examples used more semantically meaningful html5 elements where appropriate, but that's not too big of a deal.

I noticed last night that the forms have been cleaned up a bit and outfitted with new class names
