Agree. I feel like the division in which designers only work in Figma/Sketch/etc. without actually being able to implement those things in HTML and CSS leads to designs that are often impractical for the platform. Shouldn't the person responsible for drawing the user experience have an understanding as to what is actually capable on the platform that they are designing for?

Even if you do fully understand the platform you'll still find yourself having to argue with engineers who claim things are "impossible", any talent capable of producing high quality, performant UI with great UX front end work is extremely rare.

Struggling to find engineers who can even create a button and link that function correctly these days on pages with 5-10 second load times.
