> The ones who adopt a scientific approach are by far the worst
I strongly disagree.
Design without considering all of the HCI research that has been done is what you call "garbage-in-garbage-out." We already know how humans perceive information, what makes things salient or invisible, and so on, yet the current design trends completely disregard that with flat UIs and trendy designs that have poor usability.
> At best you get KPI driven design, which is a vehicle for enshittification, not for building great design.
No, you just get trendy design, not usable design.
