Yes, ID at work, providing the equipment and setting up the process, creating the capability to accomplish the desired goal of the designer.
Actually, I think it's a very fitting analogy to Theistic Evolution myself. Almost all proponents of ID that I've encountered here use the argument that IC-systems exist, and those by definition can't come around by simple processes.
On the other hand, we have something of a riddle here: A very intelligent designer could prefer to use processes that are self regulating simply because they do most of the work without requiring intelligence.
Or are you arguing that the way to see if a system is ID is to look for the purpose behind the system instead of the actual processes, and if so, what actual difference is there between ID and TE?
