    ^ totally. You take what might have been an ambitious design on desktop, then make it responsive.. you either end up with a really watered down experience, or your complexity is magnified 2-3x... and maybe that becomes much too large of a project.

    Another thing to note: the tools you choose impact the end result. A design done in illustrator is going to tend to be different from one done in PhotoShop, purely because of what easy and what's hard in each programme. And when you're talking about development, even beyond templates you have things like bootstrap. Foundation and uikit that add a set of constraints to custom implementations. They save a lot of time, but they make every website that uses them feel similar because nobody is reinventing the wheel. They're just taking what's in the library.
