Well, if an important aspect of game design is understanding processes
and systems, then it isn't far fetched to make the association with
computer science - which is also essentially about understanding and
specifying processes.
I do agree however that experience designing games, playing games,
reading about games, are essential. You'd be surprised at the number of
people who "teach games", but don't actually play any themselves.
