It seems like this can also happen when management is under-valued and each individual contributor can always make all their own decisions. I'm sure this can work on a team disciplined enough to share important design decisions they make with each other and to voluntarily adhere to some design decisions they may not entirely agree with. But for a lot of teams, without someone taking the lead on making important decisions, you end up lost.
