I guess bad design is an habit that we programmers carry from school. I don't know what about American education, but in my college proffesors use to ask for functionality not for good designed interfaces, and that habit is difficult to quit, users don't know anything about design either, so you show your final product, it works, the system does what it should, and they are happy they won't tell you, hey! this form has too many textboxes, or hey! why are you designing like a programmer?
