No I don't believe so. After a ridiculous amount of time thinking about this over the last couple of decades, I really think that it's just harder to see and think the simple, especially when corner cases start showing up. Combine this with the fact that we have (and continue to produce) abstraction layers over in order to "simplify" it to a manageable level, and you quickly get to high complexity even when you don't want to. It takes more effort and time to produce simpler solutions, and generally speaking as an industry, we're way balacned toward speed over quality. We basically only care about "quality" as far as it has direct customer impact. It's relentless optimization for the short-term over the long-term, and it leads to complexity.
