There's probably something to that. I've accepted that my open source project, htmx, will likely never drive any significant income. It's too simple. Whenever someone starts talking about consulting, I tell them to read the docs and maybe jump on the discord, but that they'll probably figure it out. In addition to the revenue angle, a lot of developers don't like admitting "that seems too complicated" because it can be interpreted as "I'm not smart enough". Arguing for simplicity often requires a lot of backbone (or disagreeableness, according to taste.)
