I think people get carried away by complexity sometimes and forget that building a business can just mean solving a problem better than anyone else and telling people about it.

Complexity is the enemy, I eschew it, when I find something really smart and complicated in my codebase (even stuff that I wrote), I rip it out and replace it with something simple.
The M-16 is a completely superior weapon system in almost every regard to an AK-47, except one, you can throw an AK-47 in the mud pick it up and shoot it. It passes the good enough bar and it works.
Complex systems are brittle, it's sort of the Buffet theory, find a business so simple even an idiot could run it.
