I agree that this sounds like a lack of professionalism. Maybe they did not spot the same issues that you saw? If they saw the issues, I am not sure why they would not have taken those learnings to heart and used them to improve the design. In the end, better design would make them look better than some report %u201Cvalidating%u201D the usability of their design.
Better design (however you define it) should be the ultimate goal of every project, and every and project within the project should support that goal. Right? I don't know why else they would have done usability testing, except to bill more hours, I suppose. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
