> But where does the prejudice of "designers only care about visuals" come from? This isn't prejudice, it's just observed factual reality in the world. The entire flat UI thing came about as a fashion, and had as its consequences the removal of affordances (scroll bars, buttons that were clearly buttons, etc.) You might not like that people question it, but it's nevertheless a thing that happened and is still happening.

It's also an observed factual reality that there were many terrible software development trends: XML everywhere, SOAP, microservices architectures (even if they do not apply), YAML in every config file, etc. Every specialization has those trends, which are often copied without analysis. I don't have any problem with questioning those trends. However, criticizing that YAML may not be the best way to build a DSL is not the same as saying that all engineers don't care about systems architecture and only use the latest framework.
