Not immediately, but it does. The problem with process gates is that they don't fix the problem, they just hide it. Even worse, they treat problem as unfixable by nature.
If your juniors are architecting, something is wrong with your structure. Juniors should typically execute somebody else's designs.
If your devs don't have a good sense of UX, they should not have the power to make the decision to ship the product where UX is crucial. OTOH if they ship internal dashboards for one user (or for themselves), they don't need a designer approval.
