This generic expression indicates why "correct" comes first. "Simple" has it as a dependency. ;)

It's order of importance though rather than an expression of dependencies and I'd definitely err on wanting my solution to be as simple as possible over merely correct. The idea being that whilst you are solving a problem you are always striving to solve it simply and only add complexity as needed.
