There is still a huge difference in the amount of complexity in a solution and the amount of complexity in the computer system implementing that solution. In extremely simple cases, such as implementing a mathematical formula, the solution (in the form of words or an equation) and the implementation (actual code) could be on the same size order - there is virtually no accidental complexity. For business solutions, like a shopping web site, the difference could be a factor of 10,000 or more. But that's almost all accidental complexity, because of how organically the web and most programming languages have grown to handle cultural concepts like language, visual flow, authentication, encryption, cross-platform compatibility and so on.
