And here's the problem. 90% of the time pro-active abstraction (complexity) is never needed and therefore bad.
You can always do things retro-actively.
If you find yourself writing the same thing 3 times then yes, by all means abstract it away.
Good abstractions are not invented; they reveal yourself to you in due time.
