To be fair, they generally are idiots, though.

Amateur developers are often idiots. People who do it as a living --
long term, and successfully -- tend to be a lot more rational than that.

But would it make good television if the amateurs said, after explaining
to Sarah their plans and hearing why she thought they were pants, "You're
right, let's do it your way instead"?

Actually, I think it would. And while it would put Sarah in the position
of having to prove herself right (positively, as opposed to showing clips
of estate agents and prospective buyers echoing her words), it wouldn't
really be much of a risk, would it?
