This is not traditionally how these words are used, no. Designers are part of a software development company, but they aren't developers in so much as they are solely performing the designer role. And not all (actually, very few these days) designers have a history as a developer. Many game designers have not written any code and have very superficial ideas of computing constraints. It is their job (in part) to know these constraints, but that is an ideal rather than a practical reality. |
"Developer" is shorthand for the studio, the whole team. Not just the programmers.
