Re: when people complain about complexity they are often complaining about a change from the thing they know to something they don't.
If something is truly better, then it should be easy to articulate why in a concrete manner, such as exploring total lines of code that need to be changed per a change request scenario that's realistic for your particular org (and not a cheesy textbook example).
It's also good to see it actually working in similar organizations. Often people copy from dissimilar organizations and make a mess. Microservices are like this. They don't fit many shops or orgs; but because Netflix finds them useful, everybody has to copy.
Often "new things" are passing fads. It's good to vet things for actual productivity improvement instead of just using buzzwords such as "separation of concerns". Otherwise, the org will have separation-of-wallet.
