I mean, I have seen both sides of the story. People putting too much effort into simplifying things where the product users just do not care about it, as well as people overcomplicating things while implementing features up to the point of the program being non-functioning (or very hard to update).
I would say that it is more about how coupled your field and the product you are building are with it being implemented properly. For some areas, like most of the web or building SaaS, it is not as tightly coupled as for other areas like system engineering, building high-performance products, etc.
