So you would prefer lots of meetings, messages and redone work instead of someone showing you a picture that kind of represents what they want?
The problem is that the picture does not represent what they want. They want aspects a, b and c from the picture while someone else looking at it might see aspects x, y and z. Pictures are an incredibly imprecise form of communication.
It's not only a picture. It's a picture with a description. It's the starting point. You don't start a painting by going from blank canvas to finished product. You start with a sketch.
