I’ve always been an advocate for simplicity. Over-complicated things are such a waste of time, for both understanding and implementing.
Simple things aren’t necessarily beautiful, but your perception of them will change once you start to appreciate their simplicity. An ugly structure can support a beautiful exterior, because it has been specifically made to be as functional and practical as possible.
Something that is beautifully simple is so easy to transfer. Its simplicity enables others to participate in its function; the reason it was created in the first place. The more simple it is, the more readily it will be used, appreciated, shared, talked about and referred. A simple thing is a joy to pass onto another who would benefit from it.
And if the simple thing has been very cleverly made, its longevity is almost guaranteed. Practicality overpowers confusion, simplicity supersedes complication. If you possess something that is difficult to understand, simplify it immediately!
