Of course we agree. Too clever is "stuff I'm too lazy to understand". What we don't agree is on the definition of I; everyone has their own binding for that symbol, which carries a context for different types of stuff we are too lazy to understand.

Interesting take. 'Too clever' for me is: 'using underlying concepts which have semantics that have a poor mental overhead versus applicability within the domain'.
