IME convoluted is often mistaken for clever. I've seen systems where the author was proud of how complicated their knots were but the reality was just a tangle to everyone else. Personally I guard for when I need to solve a problem but am having too much fun. It is usually a sign I'm too invested in the code than the goal, it helps me write but my next goal will be to edit it so future me won't say such awful things about now me.
