Well, this is what you said:" I can't both design and review my own design.
And while I'd like to believe that I can participate in TESTING my design,
I'd like to have some fresh blood I that process as well."

We can split hairs on whether testing is/isn't validation, etc.

You'll have no argument from me, if you propose to *integrate* testing into
the design process, as opposed to parachuting in external businesses with
their own agenda and bias to specifically "validate" the output of just one
of the players of the product creation process.
