When you encounter a simpler system, a simpler idea, or a simpler implementation, you have an opportunity.
You can say "it's not enough, it doesn't have, it wouldn't work". That’s the common reflexive response.
Or you can reflect. “What is it about how we work that prevents us from using such a simple, succinct system?” “How did we get so twisted, so tangled, so dependent on so much that we can’t seem to get anywhere otherwise?”
Depending on more can often mean being able to do less.
Turning back can be getting ahead.
Downshift.
