The ability to recognize and manage complexity is surely a strong survival trait, akin to wisdom. As true for hunting and gathering as for particle research. Complexity is also somehow deeply related to beauty, or at least awe. Such emotions motivate us to become more observant of the complex, possibly therefore out-replicating the more oblivious.
