Thanks. I think I understand the background much better now. When we think easy, we always take the "my" and "now" perspective. When we think simple, we often take the wholesome point of view. Thus the need for differentiation.

I might be wrong, but I think the word you meant by "wholesome" is actually "holistic"
You are right, I just grabbed the words by the sound of it.

A better word is subjective and objective. Easy is a subjective word, while simple is an objective one.
