I'm not sure how a dba is supposed to do this. If the DBA is also the data architect, then, maybe. But then, the DBA will spend all his time exploring the business instead of architecting the database. I think it is a team effort. The DBA should be able to depend on a data architect to give him the needed information so he can make the decisions his application's datastore needs.
The developers are going to be the experts at what the sqlcode is doing and the DBA should be able to depend on them so he can help them right more performant code and also stay away from bad code.
I guess, nobody should think of themselves as the "sole" source of info.
