>That said, no matter which way you skin it, if you increase complexity then you increase risk.

This isn't really true, for eg. if you add redundancy technically you increase the complexity but also reduce risk (point being complexity will also be introduced when making the system safer, simplification just makes analysing and screening for bugs more effective, but there are other risk factors)
