Complexity – a patchwork quilt of misunderstanding and confusion tied together ‘by hook or by crook’.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/By_hook_or_by_crook

Complex systems are the result of our collective blindness to the simple interconnectedness of our universe.

Why is the emerging view of our universe – no longer a Cosmological and Cosmogonic garden of the good, true and beautiful – now turning into this phantasm of complexity?

Where did we go wrong?
Was it the creation and maintaining of the expectation that we could comprehend and grasp the whole of our Cosmos within one perspective?

Were the applications of the science we created so profit bearing that we began to take more than our fare share?

Was it the tempo at which our scientists – not even slowed down by the ethical and moral considerations which constitute our navigation systems down the roads of evolution – that have brought us to this place much too soon and with so much needless suffering (for animals and humans)?

Are we to continue abandoning our organic (and real) ascendancy for artificial (and synthetic) correlates?

The ends are NOT justified by their means! They are determined by them.
