I fully agreee, another detail is that most of the time, designers are expected to think. It's a wrong assumption.

The reasearch and development side, that should be prioritized at the beginning, before even start thinking about designing. If there's no information to digest, the output is usually flat and bland.

Designers draw, is not their fault. Architects and Product Strategists are those responsible to successful products that actually deliver memorable experieces. We put a lot of meanings into the term designer that it became so generic to reach the point of fully lose its role in the production process.
