Simplicity is asserted as much as it is true. Such that, you will be surprised how effective saying something is simple is at getting uptick in it. My goto evidence for this, for a while, has been Python. It is no "simpler" than pretty much any other option nowadays. What it has going for it is an audience that as bought in to how simple it is. And they evangelize it. With those terms. Heavily. Is it somewhat obnoxious? I mean, yeah. I'm very sympathetic to the idea. At old job, we would harp on "weasel words" that were there and served no purpose. But, there is a catch, they absolutely work on audiences that are not primed against them. Can they be overdone? Absolutely, but there are solid reasons you will see them over and over.
