The UX people did have that fight. It ultimately comes down to "take your check and do it, or we can find someone who will"
So why are they taking the checks? Why not fight?
Have you worked for a mega corp?
There is no fighting this head on...but there are options for you know... Some compliance friction :)
I have worked for a mega corp. I fought bad decisions by arguing with management about bad orders.
As a tech friend once told me, “It’s your job to make them understand”
