HTTP/1.x is anything but simple. They were under defined and overly complex in many ways. The original RFC was so complex that when reworked, they split it into 6 documents.

I've worked heavily on some HTTP implementations and its ridiculously hard to get them right.

Not to mention, this "server" only responds to a simple well formed GET request. Without handling about 90% of what the HTTP specifications talk about. Its a nice project, but it doesn't speak to the simplicity of HTTP
