These are NOT "design" jobs. They aren't "knowledge/service" jobs either.

And fun fact: retraining absolutely does not work. Less than 10% can be retrained and usually they are the segment that could have retrained themselves without specific retraining.

I think you might have misunderstood the comment you're replying to: they're saying that economies (and related policies) are often built through some form of design process, not that factory jobs are design jobs.
