Ok, so maybe I'm getting this now.

Are you saying that the designer's style is part of the aesthetic element?

Your original principal was Beauty over Usability. Are you saying that beauty has a stylistic component where usability does not?

At some level, I think I get this. (However, I wonder, as we approach higher levels of delight, if there isn't a stylistic quality to usability too.)

If I've gotten this right, I think what you're saying is Style over <something> where something might be usability, but I'm thinking is probably something more than Uniformity.

Or maybe I've gotten it completely wrong.
