I am wary, that a one page rule would have unintended side effects. Like not reducing the complexity, but making the wording extremely terse instead.

Totally agree, it would need to be accompanied by a corresponding change in the culture of governance (and is highly unlikely), but one can wish.

That's why making the one page rule a rule of honour instead of a formal rule might help. Because you want people following the spirit of the rule instead of its letter.
