I didn't say that that's the _correct_ design philosophy, just that it's _the_ design philosophy for op-amp (circuit) designs.
If I say that I believe that tube-based amplifiers are the only way to go, will you send me that contract for $100K? For another $50K I'll believe that it needs an output transformer with nickel laminations and all-silver windings, plus a choke feed with similar construction. If you want I'll even specify that all the current-carrying components must be dipped in LN2 before assembly, to align their crystalline structure for better sound.
