>>281292186Its ironic that you are trying to argue in favor of simplicity over complexity by saying that a user who keeps things simple by not caring enough about the inner workings of useful tool is being passive and is taking "the dumbest stance".
And this exposes the underlying problem with your chosen paradigm of thought.
The paradigm of useful/useless on the other hand has no problem incorporating user's awareness as one of its components.
In other words, a useless tool won't stop being useless if its made out of two parts or a billion.
Nor will a useful tool stop being useful whether the user knows everything about it's inner workings or nothing.
