Granville gets confused:

By “front-loaded” I didn’t mean to imply “always been there”, just put there in anticipation of a later need.
Put there when? - when it was designed?
So it was put there when it was designed but it hasn't always been there, is that it?, or was it put there later, after it was designed, in anticipation that it might be useful later on? Presumably the designer didn't know when it was being designed that it would need this so it had to be added in later - a correction to a flawed design; The work of a non-omniscient designer perhaps?

Or maybe - if it was put there after design it might have been put there by something other than the designer!!!
I see a new branch to ID on the horizon - IPTT - Intelligent Post-design Tinkering Theory!!!

Ah, sorry I misinterpreted you. That is an important distinction.
Yes, very clear!
