Even if designs are done in house for outsourced production, it's stealing a great resource away from the designers: feedback.

They never see the process it takes to be created, the communication pipeline between the designer and builder is throttled, their designs are only tweaked when large or obvious flaws are found.

This is a wonderful comment. I think someone on this site said that coding is the process of understanding the solution. This is what that means.

Indeed. They are also additionally constrained by their knowledge and understanding of the universe of possible solutions rather than being able to draw from the larger combined knowledge pool of themselves and the builders.
