Yeah - I think good design should be as simple as it can while respecting the complexity of the task. Designers forget that not everyone is building search engine front pages or like, the kind of simple objects with no moving parts that tend to get touted as good design. I'm building a development environment for professionals using a complicated DSL to interface with a powerful AI. No beginners in emergencies should ever see this thing - my users got graduate degrees to get to this point, and they're going to have to learn to use it to do their job. I'm going to make that as painless as possible, but nothing can have all the required features and make them all obvious in ten seconds.
