To my knowledge the nginx config hasn't gotten more complex.

I don't know caddy but I suspect it's just simpler.

Yeah, what's happened here is that Caddy is optimized for the most common use cases and gives them a "happy path." This simplicity is only possible in a world where something like nginx (and apache httpd before it) exists and people can figure out what the "happy path" should even be.
