    I think, being a perfectionist designer is about organizational talent, characterized by certain level of consistency and complexity, to which the designer is able to conform his systems, not the actual psychiatric urge to do it (OCD)... OCD, hand washing, checking, counting, straightening etc. is a neurobehavioral disorder, it's purpose is to create a feeling of security, a feeling of certain temporary comfort. Any person with little or no planning/organizational talent can develop OCD depending on whatever anxieties are encouraging him to do it.
