- wpietri 13y agoI think it could sound wrong to the naive because novices generally want things to be simple. They want a few rules, a simple formula, a way to reduce an unknown problem to a known one. This comes up a lot. The most pithy version I've seen is from Mencken: "For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong." But the same lesson is in the [1] Dreyfus model of skill acquisition, and also in the shu-ha-ri model [2].
