Saw a portfolio review at a coworking space in Austin that made me cringe

I was waiting for a client meeting at this spot on 6th Street and overheard a guy getting his portfolio torn apart by a senior designer. The kid had 12 projects on his site but zero case studies, just screenshots with no text explaining his process. The senior guy straight up said "I don't care what it looks like if you can't tell me why you built it that way." Really made me think about how many people just throw visuals up and skip the thinking part. Has anyone else noticed portfolios getting flashier but dumber about explaining decisions?
