Fair point. I was conflating taste with design, which is a different thing. But I think this actually strengthens the argument. If even the people whose entire job is visual judgment are mostly executing within constraints set by someone else, then "taste" as an individual moat is even weaker than the article claims. The leverage is in setting the constraints, not in having better judgment within them

The job isn't about visual judgement, but composition. Judgement/taste is the responsibility of directors and executives.
