What about the "design" of our fruits and vegetables without seeds, larger sizes, artificial colors, etc.? Interestingly, apple slicers/corers are now often too small for the "designer" super-sized apples.
Some further (rather gloomy) thoughts:
Why are so many of our everyday things designed with built-in obsolescence? Why are there ever more common items designed to be thrown away rather than to be repaired?
Worse. . .
What about the design of terrifying things? Bombs, guns, WMDs?

I have to agree with you in terms of things being designed to be thrown away. I remember I have so much electronics that I have thrown away simple it was broken. I'm pretty sure there is someone that is proficient enough to fix it but I never bother probably because the cost of buying a new one cost less than fixing it.
