I think both serve differente purposes. Bootstrap has its own design sistem, it's not intended to be used if you need to overcustomize its components. While bootstrap comes with a component design system approach, tailwind comes with a utility based approach, which basically transfer the styling resposibility to ready-to-use classes and focus in design tokens instead of design patterns. But just as B4, tailwind comes with its own problems, like the need of heavy tooling, messy HTML and non DRY approach to code
