If font and color choice with a few vectors was all this designer ever did, then he was in trouble with our without this tool set.
The visual elements of design are only the most superficial elements. Identifying a user problem, creating an interaction journey to solve it, and mapping that to a programmable interface are the valauble parts of design because they are HARD and often not very fun.
Almost anyone can follow color theory and the grid system.

I would say it's more like, for many businesses, a few icons and color choices is all they want in the first place. The bare minimum to have your site/app/whatever not be ugly or unprofessional. And now there are a lot of ways to do that without needing a designer. I don't think this is a good way to make software, without someone whose job is to think about the person on the other side of the screen, but it is a way.
