“Simplicity is a lack of complectness.” — Rich Hickey
There is a distinct difference between “easy” (what is close at hand, such as immediate AI code generation) and “simple” (unentangled, structural, and reliable).
The modern Senior Engineer chooses the Simple over the Easy to prevent feature bloat and architectural rot.
