This user is not a member of any SharePoint group that has 'Create Subsites' permission.
The user is able to create subsites in SharePoint developer.
They are not able to create them from the web browser.
Why is this allowed? Has anyone experienced this?

Hi,
when you say 'Sharepoint developer', are you refering Sharepoint Designer?

Yes. I meant 'SharePoint Designer'.
They are able to create subsites in designer, but they are not a member of a group that has 'create subsites' permission.
Does having SharePoint Designer access implicitly grant subsite creation permission? That doesnt sound right...

No, SharePoint Designer has all the permission trimming the web ui has. You must be missing something. Check again that the user is not in any Active Directory Group or SharePoint Group that has create subsite permissionPlease mark my response as an answer if appropriate.

Hi,
try to check all user permissions and AD Groups. I'm sure this user has permissions for create subsites. Maybe you must create the user profile again.
