I don't know of any developer that likes complexity for complexity sake for productive systems.
I know there are some esoteric programming languages or obfuscation techniques that make simple things more complex, but they a either meant as a challenge for fun or efforts to protect IP.
Do you have some examples where you have observed such design decisions?
