Tailwind can produce wildly different and highly customized results; Bootstrap generally cannot. They are different approaches, and preferences are obviously valid, but I do not think they are really comparable in that sense.
Personally, I think vanilla CSS is great, but Tailwind offers a similar level of versatility while also making the way styles are written more uniform, which matters when you are working in a team and do not want everyone reinventing the wheel.
And with components, I do not think the repetition is nearly as bad as people claim.

I do not think the comparison really holds up.
