Engineers say they want to work on hard problems then complain that they can’t solve something because it’s too complex

The difference is this isn't an inherently hard problem. It's just stupidity. The difficulty is not inherently interesting, because it's all made up.

Seconded, compliance-induced complexity is the most asinine and tedious possible application of programming skills.
