When I use the word 'Simple' in e.g., a class name, I usually mean: ~"This is meant to cover the 80% of common cases--I haven't done extensive testing or development on it. If you need to cover something in the remaining 20% of edge and corner cases, you're going to need to write your own more complex code to handle those."

I.e., my code is simple--and that might make your usage complex.

Of course, things can evolve from the original implementation--especially if the code is maintained by a team. What was once 'simple' (from any perspective) can become terribly appendaged yet never renamed.
