Sorry for the delay on clarification. The design can be done (on
paper, no code) ahead of time. Designers are considered a member of
the team so they're part of the 2 person limit. And the 2 person limit
is there to even the playing field.  If more people think that limit
is too small, I'd consider adjusting the rules but this is only the
second time it's come up.  To put that in context, that means that
only 2 people out of 101 (~2%) have voiced it as a concern.
