I just have to pop in here and say that out of all the design
principles
I've ever picked up or articulated myself, I put Simplicity as the
most important. A good design is one that meets all the requirements,
a better design is one that meets all the requirements as is but will
not if you remove even one design element. The best design is the
smallest
design.
