I'd just be happy if I came across more "senior" "web" designers that actually understand UX. All of the ones I've come across wouldn't know how a checkout workflow works in practice and will happily remove necessary fields, information, or steps because it doesn't look pretty.

Like... we do need a way where the user can see a summary of their purchases (and adjust quantities) before paying for them. Also, limiting quantity to 9 because 10 is too wide is just... I have no words.

Not sure if you were around the web in the 1990's. HTML was really cool, you just wrote it and the browser reflowed everything to the users screen. Then the web went commercial and a bunch of people from the print industry came along and wanted to specify the exact page layout of everything. Things changed rapidly. I mean now they even want to not only specify fonts, but have custom ones made. Ugh.
