{{a|devil|{{image|dancing landscape|jpg|A dancing landscape, yesterday.}}{{subtable|{{complex capsule}}}}}}[[All other things being equal]], a bummer — if you have in mind ''[[risk]]'' — and a boon — if you have in mind ''reward''. A violation of [[Occam’s razor]]; a source of confusion, a time-sink, a material contributor to catastrophic [[normal accident]]s; a ''[[waste]]'' — yet in a [[distributed network]] of autonomous bodies, an ''inevitability''. The more sophisticated the group of individuals, the greater the rate of complexification.

There are those [[Deterministic|determinists]] who see complexity as just a sort of presently-uncalculatable state of a simple algortithm, like [[Conway’s Game of Life]]. We do not agree.
