Powerful insight! While it's not a "sexy" framing, it's quite spot on. Similarly, in the first phase of my career when I was an interaction designer, I found powerful leverage against the (awful, unanswerable, reductive) question of "What's the ROI of design?" by flipping the question over to: "What's the risk of not investing in design?" Basically, any discipline that conducts research and experiments, leads innovation activities, sets strategy, and ensures cross-disciplinary coordination/collaboration are all contributing to risk reduction. Amen!
