Regardless at a certain point it feels like splitting hairs. All these boot camps are excellent and a motivated person can get an excellent outcome and any one of them

100% agree a motivated person can get an excellent outcome at any of them. You are in HR and sounds like you are doing well, so you probably fall in that bucket.
I know a lot of people who have no idea if they are "motivated" but they think they might be. Some people are and have tremendous imposter syndrome and some people aren't and feel "tricked" thinking that a bootcamp will connect the dots to a six figure job, but really they shouldn't have gone there to begin with. Hitting the bar of acceptance is a good sign, but some people will need a lot more time to get to that job than others.
It's really not cool for a self-taught chef with no college degree to think that Codesmith will get them a $140K salary because that was the median in New York for H2 2021. It might be cool for a electrical engineer who has 2 years of experience writing python scripts to think that they will get those median outcomes.
