Simplexity

AndersHejlsberg: Let me first talk a little bit about how I view simplicity in general. No one ever argues that simplicity isn't good, but people define simplicity in a variety of ways. There's one kind of simplicity that I like to call simplexity. When you take something incredibly complex and try to wrap it in something simpler, you often just shroud the complexity. You don't actually design a truly simple system. And in some ways you make it even more complex, because now the user has to understand what was omitted that they might sometimes need. That's simplexity. So to me, simplicity has to be true, in the sense that the further down you go the simpler it gets. It shouldn't get more complicated as you delve down.
