I disagree because they communicate different things (to me).
Seeing Bootsrap for some custom software at my university pre-llm: "I think that a programmer made this and didn't have a designer helping them so they just used a library"
Seeing vibe-coded frontend: "This app may be entirely vibe coded so I am deeply suspicious of it, or it could be a programmer who didn't have a designer helping them and thus used Bootstrap"

It could also reasonably mean that they consider a generic design fine. Design has many aspects, and branding/uniqueness is only one. You could, for example, have a very high quality layout of the bootstrap controls that is very easy and intuitive to use.
