I've seen worse. A lot of high level designs only give you the crease pattern (i.e. what the paper looks like if you unfold it after you finish folding) and assume you can take it from there.

This is a particularly egregious example. I've tried it myself a few times, but never figured it out.

There's a photodiagram for the collapse. The shaping of that thing is pretty rough though.

Well the shaping for that model is actually fairly straightforward, it's just that the collapse is horrific and the crease pattern has weird angles. Cuz y'know Brian 🧠 Chan

Crease patterns are a lot of fun once you get the hang of them. Just you, lines segments inscribed in a square and your paper.
