It's not fragility, so much as perspective.
When you are thinking something is simple, and you say "Am I'm thinking I'm impressed with my own cleverness?" it's easy to say "no". Because it's not arrogant to think you can accomplish something simple.
When you are thinking something is simple, and you say "Am I assuming simplicity?" it's easy to say "yes".
Realizing you're committing the fallacy is the first step to avoiding it.
