This happens when the architect is out of touch. If the architect themselves works on the code, writes code, deals with the imposed restrictions, then the chances of that happening is much lower. Assuming, that they are a good architect.

I agree, if the architect participates in the implementation then they avoid this anti-pattern. That’s not compatible with hands-off autonomous agents where you treat implementation as a black box.
