We hire pro designers for everything, and while I don't love the 'B' logo Patrick chose, I can easily make a case that it is more professional than his current logo. I think your comment crosses way over the line into hyperbole.
I don't think it's hyperbole at all. That the 99 Designs "logo" is as terrible as it is, proves nothing about the almost-as-terrible logo that is in use now.
How is it hyperbolic? Your definition of a "professionally-designed" logo excludes the normal professional process for identity design. Then you conclude that engineering always beats aesthetics.
