The good kind of simplicity is hard. I’ve seen (and built) a bunch of things that were too simple and consequently underpowered for the task at hand[1]. Then there’s the issue of, ok this thing definitely needs to be done; do we do it in this module or in that one? This is all separate from the tendency to conflate simple with what’s easy [2].

IIRC, the command was

  $ poetry add foo most recent \
    which fits this crowd most decent
