I think that things only become less complex when it becomes old and reliable. Even if the internals of the thing are a fucking mess. For example, Linux, in its entirety is a complex fucking beast for its maintainers.
Yet for other people it's a simple as fuck thing that accomplishes things for them and lets them move forward with getting shit done.
So really, it's how you look at it.
The human body is so freaking complex, it is entirely possible we'll never even understand how half of it works. Yet from another point of view we easily hire a bunch of humans to do tasks (programming, making food, yard work, etc..). And even though we don't know how the body works, we have a simple understanding of how that body can accomplish those tasks, which is enough to move forward.
