Yes, the world *is* full of idiots. But... I believe Grady Booch (we all know he knows nothing of design)states in the (Design Patterns) forward that one of the ways *he* measures oo design quality is by judging "... whether or not its developers have paid careful attention to the common collaborations among its objects" in short, *patterns*. Idiots are dangerous no matter what they are doing but the idea that design pattern usage is a good metric for judging oo design quality is hardly without merit.
