I want to second this. The things I wrote throughout my career that I'm most proud of aren't very complex.
I find it very satisfying to understand a problem so well, up to the point you can find a simple and elegant solution to it. It makes the solution easier to reason about with other team members, and easier for the team to maintain it later.
I see this as making your domain expertise available as a framework for the other team members.
This is my idea of sophistication in the software development world.
