Of course. What I referred to were relatively objective metrics. Code
complexity is inherently subjective, and what constitutes complexity
varies a lot based on individual tastes.

And there is also the question of internal vs external complexity, for
instance, this patch only increases internal complexity of ff_exp10,
but not external complexity for clients of ff_exp10. This is also
subjective.
