Entropy is a good analogy for software complexity. In that it takes more energy to decrease entropy than to increase it—is fundamental in understanding why in nature, without external intervention, systems tend to evolve towards greater disorder. As a result, a single engineer can wreck such havoc on a system that it's essentially impossible to repair. This seems to be the a key to the issue and it's a people problem.
