I don't think the article is advocating that that designers can just code up some HTML and CSS as a substitute for FE devs. Specialists are necessary, but so are people who can span disciplines, like designers who can do some HTML and CSS. https://chiefexecutive.net/ideo-ceo-tim-brown-t-shaped-stars-the-backbone-of-ideoaes-collaborative-culture__trashed/ https://chiefexecutive.net/ideo-ceo-tim-brown-t-shaped-stars... If the designer codes up his design, finds problems, and makes improvements, that's time saved for the FE engineer, and eliminates some conflicts like https://library.gv.com/why-you-should-move-that-button-3px-to-the-left-c012e5ad32f7 https://library.gv.com/why-you-should-move-that-button-3px-t... It's also faster for the FE engineer to start with working code as opposed to a Sketch or Zeplin document. Having said that, maybe you're responding to one part of the article, and I'm responding to another, so we're talking past each other.
