Saying "do everything properly" is an opinion too. Why is semantic markup more "proper" than Bootstrap's <div> and class names? The idea that semantic markup is a beautiful paradise is unsubstantiated. If you want non-humans to understand your markup you can use microformats, http://schema.org/ markup, or another form of microdata. Making "semantic" class names doesn't change how your users or search engines parse your content.
