Becsuse you get someone in on the creation thst can say things like.
"99% of all software uses Control+s to save, yes W stands for Write Out, but literally no one thinks that way and Control W is unintuitive."
"People prefer larger icons with meaningful symbols."
"This setting is only accessible by using a CLI to edit a .conf file in /etc/software/config/current and thats a terrible design."
"Your pop up dialogs should all be consistently sized with Yes/Cancel buttons in the same space so users can more instinctively know where to click."
"The window design looks like Windows 95 and makes people think they are in prison and has driven at least one user to depression and suicide, maybe consider modernizing the look with some color and roundness."
