Yes they do. All to often, however, architects create some pretty diagrams then move onto the next project and are completely unable (or unwilling) to provide development guidance.

Yes. An achitect, IMHO, should progress from coding, business analysis and coding then to architect. Seven week "architect" course for a salesman does not an architect make.
