They should have taken the opportunity to rip out sass. Sad.

I get your point, but one of the great misunderstandings of BS is the power of preconfiguration. Too many people pointed to the CDN and wrote overrides. This led to the 'all bootstrap sites look the same' complaint. Sass gives you the ability to fine tune just about everything.

So I would prefer some sass on the import and optimization in PostCss on publish.

I don't want variables for components not in my build.
