So i have no doubt most deisgners think they do better "art" than others..

But site owners dont buy "art" they buy designs to make them money

If design A) was better "art" than design B) but design B) sold twice as well. what design do you want to buy ??

so undoubtedly quality of design is a rather moot point, there are so many factors that can make a good design.
