It might not.  But it will a) help the lack of designers from impeding
development progress; and b) help do no harm to the HIG / design goals

I couldn't agree more - which is why I'm scared to touch the HIG,
since I know it's best left to designers with Sugar's core design
principles squarely in the fore.
