Im of 2 minds on this. 1. It may be our own fault -- A lot of things have known solutions, and if they aren't simple we haven't created good enough tools/abstractions. This doesn't apply to truely new stuff, but I could argue that a lot of stuff isn't that new. 2. Absolutely, but so often its like the old kung fu movies jokes. The chinese being spoken is 3 words, and the translation is 3 lines, and the inverse. It makes a naive sort of sense that it should be a simple to do if it can be described simply. (of course karma can be built by letting hte user over describe some things and having them done realtime, some are then more likely to beleive you if you say "its harder than it sounds")
