You can either build on top of blueprint (I know of many Pier pages  
that have done exactly this) or remove it an use your own things  
(there are quite a couple of pages here as well).

The tree is still there as a widget. So you can just add it. I removed  
it from the default layout, as its usability is very limited and I  
think it should be generally avoided. In my opinion the tree is only  
good to manage and organize the site, therefor I often add it for  
admins only.

I don't see much difference, except that this CSS framework is a bit  
at a different leven. It provides 6 different layouts and seems to me  
a bit limited. However there is nothing that prevents you from using  
it in Pier: remove blueprintcss, add contentwithstyle, done.
