I agree. It usually seems simple to the author but it's bloody annoying when some documentations says something is simple and it actually isn't.

- dctoedt 1y agoFair. Context matters.
- ar_lan 1y agoI refuse to use the word "simple" in my docs writing for this precise reason. I have come to view the word to seem condescending/elitist, even if that's not the intent. If something is written as simple, but I as an entrant to something view it as not simple, I'm going to be severely discouraged - "if this is the simple thing, what is the hard thing?" It's often an unnecessary adjective.
