I like simple answers. They're very Dao. I think we sometimes forget that the simple things are most often the most correct ones. We have an intellect and a gift of language, which I think are part of what leads us to overcomplicate our surroundings. We are surrounded by things we do not comprehend, things which mystify us, and acceptance of the simple seems somehow to have been bred out of our overactive little minds. We see those answers as "too easy'. Occam had it on the nose, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wasn't too far off the mark either.
