I think your framing is fair here. But I'd like to offer an even more complicated/nuanced take:
Designing in a group can be very difficult, and doing it well is a skill set that most people don't naturally have.
I think this explains your point 1. Why do people view designed docs as pointless? Because they really don't have a vision or model for what and effective and healthy collaborative design process would look like.
