Perhaps I was a bit hyperbolic. Some subset of added complexity is justified as the problems we’ve tried to solve have gotten more complex. Another subset is added complexity for the reasons I listed (no good feedback loops to prevent it), which is imo not good. I also feel that this subset is larger than the first subset.
