Bootstrap seems to have become less prescriptive over time, but I also prefer Foundation for the reasons you've gone through, here - better integration with Sass and encouragement form the devs that you use @extend to build out your own classes.

Doing a lot of rapid prototyping, I find Foundation to be an incredible tool. Having protoytped up a template layout, it's pretty simple to switch classes to a decent SUIT/BEM naming convention and latch on media-queries too.

Absolutely love the analogy with taking out a mortgage - very true! Great insight.

Just a quick addition for anyone stumbling upon this - you might need to add -proot (assuming your password is root) into that command if mysql won't allow you to connect:

mysql -u root -proot -e "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON . TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '' WITH GRANT OPTION; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;"
