Simple solutions do exist... it's just, they're simple, so people solve them very quickly and nobody else even has time to start processing them as a "problem".

If people are still arguing about something ten years later, it's because it's not simple. But there's lots of stuff we don't argue about, because it's solved, because it was simple.
