If you have complicated requirements, you are wrong.

You are only ever wrong if you do not listen to your customers and as a
result fail to provide them with what they want.

This is a vast oversimplification. Even if you give your customers what they want, you can still be wrong if your solution fails to behave properly in relation to the rest of the world (stealing resources, violating other people's rights, etc).


The world is complex, sometimes solutions must also be complex. In those
cases the design choice is where you put the complexity.

This, however, is right on target.
