Btw., even if we want to start simple with most things, the above statement is not actually true in the broad sense: the constraint for the kernel is utility, not complexity. We have various kinds of highly complex code in the kernel and can deal with it just fine. Throwing away useful ideas just because they seem too complex at first sight is almost always wrong.
