Design requirements are too ambiguous.
Design requirements are what it should do, not how it does it.
I'm a systems analyst, or in agile terminology "a designer" as I'm responsible for "design artifacts"
Our designs are usually unambiguous
That's why you must negotiate or clarify what is being asked. Once it has been accepted, it is not ambiguous anymore as long as you respect it.
