Yeah, and we're all evil and don't like light.
That statement is as shallow as thinking that a user would know what is 
best for him UI-wise.
Creating good UIs is certainly something different from creating good 
code, but they also certainly not contradict each other.
Each ability is based on education/experience, and each can be learned/
understood by everyone who cares enough.
You may not like developers but they are just people like everybody 
else ;-)

Adios...
