I think that developers will always complicate things to the point where they can't complicate it any further. If something is already complex (due to browser incompatibilities, weird HTML/CSS/JS bugs, etc.) then developers can't raise the complexity much. Now that those issues have mostly been resolved, we've invented build systems and weird declarative/functional frameworks to bring it back up to that same complexity level.
