Let me see if I understand correctly.

I spend a few weeks creating a design and documenting my intentions
as a designer. I get some code from that design. Then someone makes
some changes to that code. My design, my BEUTIFUL design, where I have
documented what I intend the system to do, is changed? I would be very 
upset. 

So, some new guy on the project makes a change to the code and all of my
class diagrams that I have spent time laying out, making pretty for
a design review, are changed? This does not sound like a good idea to me.

No, not good! As the DESIGNER, I am superior. I do not want coders making
changes to my lovely design. Sounds like a stupid idea to make the code
equal to the design. 

After the coders have done their work it would be most interesting to
verify if they followed my design. Reverse engineer it, then run it through
the model integrator to get a report on the differences. That would be good,
then I could have a model as designed and as built. My father is a carpenter
and he builds houses. When he makes changes to the blueprints he notes that
and when the house is finished a fresh set of drawings is made "as built".
The architect then signs off on the "as built" indicating that nothing 
illegal was done.

I'm not trying to be subversive here, but are you all aware that Together
keeps code in step with all UML diagrams?
