Intriguing article, Yuri.

There's not a whole lot talked about this subconscious/unconscious aspect of site design, so your article fascinated me.

As someone who has studied and applies the laws of influence and persuasion on the Internet, I completely understand how design plays a big factor.

Seth Godin recently hinted at this in post about Role models. We tend to models our websites and blogs on other people's sites and blogs - a subconscious (or unconscious) process we're not always aware of.
