No, it's called being terrible at your job. If you need to add complexity to your project just to save you some typing, you have no concept of what you're doing. It's like an accountant not understanding math.

Complexity can hide in unexpected places and sometimes a dash of complexity in one place can make something in another place much simpler.

I think this library has it's uses. I wouldn't use it uncritically but I wouldn't dismiss it either.
