Dave: "Are we even craft people, or are we simply the directors of
craft people?"

I cannot let that one go as I sit here reviewing a clickable
wireframe pdf I'm finishing up ready for a team to digest.  We may
not create tangible artifacts that an end-user can point to and say -
I like the way that was Interaction Designed.  Our craft is the
formulation, capture, review and dissemination of ideas & principles
where the end result is a better implementation.

I did not simply throw some ideas down on paper with this wireframe,
it is a multi-faceted artifact and is a form that I'm always trying
to improve.

While we wear multiple hats and do a little code, a little drawing,
etc. Resistance specific to our craft applies within 
* formulation: Ideation, brainstorming & research
* capture: translation of ideas from concept through prototype to
specification
* review: Peer review of capture artifacts
* dissemination: The communication of ideas & principles in an
effective manner appropriate to the given situation
