I totally agree it's not always easy. But again I think with something like this it's about savvy communication rather than enforcement. How do you articulate a challenge to a designer that respects their role in the process? Contrast is easy, there's defined standards you can defer to. But for sure, it gets tricky where it's just a difference of opinion or priorities. Regardless, just going ahead and changing the design is probably the nuclear option. It's only going to start a war. Put the shoe on the other foot: consider same designer dropping a 2008 era jQuery snippet into your carefully constructed page to resolve an issue in the build. Not fun for anyone. Edit: I should add, I'm basing all of this on personal experience. Appreciate some situations just suck and you have to get on with it.
