I think it's more about writing well, which translates into designing well. My favorite quotation from Strunk & White: A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. Conciseness is a universal design principle, and writing is one way of practicing it.
