IMHO Things are already getting simpler (or I should say external API complexity is slowing down). There are couple of reasons why I think APIs are getting simpler: * Services, Services, Services (RESTful services) * Greater Automated Test (Unit Testing) * Better dependency management * Continous Integration / Deployment * There is a new Apple-esque simple is elegance mentality now. In short developers are not as afraid as they used to be to make drastic API changes.
