Depends on the definition of simplicity. People say they want simple, but then really want easy. The most easy is always somebody doing the work for you. I got tired of hearing people mention easy when really they probably mean some combination of fearful and/or lazy, so I chose to define easiness:

If developers really wanted simplicity or to be done with work faster they would just learn the primitives of their environment: DOM, functions, and events. Most of the frameworks have APIs that are huge, so clearly simplicity isn't what's wanted.

Thanks for sharing this. I’ve been recently into the concept of Digital Gardens where you evolve concepts and expand them over time (instead of the traditional chronological blogging style) and this is exactly the result that I imagine a page should look like when matured enough.
