Perhaps some do know the designer????
This premise makes absolutely no sense.
By default, the word design implies a designer. Otherwise, it's not intelligent design.

Seriously though, I remember a few years ago one of my brothers was casually delving into the study of Chaos Theory and the beauty and symmetry found within, e.g. fractals.
I don't much about this particular field of research, but for some odd reason it seems fitting to our little banter. Beauty and order derived from chaos.
On that note we can most certainly agree.

I cannot prove that intelligent design does not exist
The contention seems to be that, although science can demonstrate the falsehood of the design hypothesis, no evidence against that demonstration can be regarded as scientific support for the hypothesis. Only the falsehood, and not the truth, of ID can count as a scientific claim.
But by your own definition, you cant 'look at the root', its a concept.
When I think, synapses in my brain fire in a certain way, but your 'root',
is the causitive.
The causitive aka 'awareness'
is a mystery that cannot be measured,
no amount of dissection will discover it.
Those who so choose, call this the 'soul'.
But which comes first, the thought or the firing synapse?
wouldnt it be a big blow to the ego to discover the firing synapse came first, that it was the causitive.
