Good design tends to work smartly around resources available on hand (however minimal they may be) & does an absolutely commendable job of it.
When bad design could render absolutely wonderful innovations useless.

Design shouldn't end at just making a product, but ought to go beyond & also make an effort to carry & pass-on those emotions, motivations to esp. the customer-fronted teams - marketing, sales, support without whose alignment it could all slip away very quickly.
For ex:
A very common goof-up abundantly noticeable right from villas, apartments to hotels is:
- the height of the adjustable shower head from the ground
User's plight:
"Wow! There are 5 functions but it looks like it was made specifically for basketball 🏀🗑️players!" 🙄
And that's perhaps why rules, protocols, frameworks, methodologies came into existence.
- not to enforce it on anyone
- not to declare "this is the only way to get it done"
- but to rather set a sense of expectation / direction / alignment over a required task!
That's perhaps why a framework like #designthinking has been around for years & still continues to rule the roost as for this space.
