I never find myself wanting to conserve complexity. I much prefer the notion 
that until you can reduce a problem to a simple statement of its essence you 
do not really understand the problem.

I have been re-visiting my development procedures with a view to further 
encourage the reduction of cyclomatic complexity at the requirements 
specification level. This is all aimed at ensuring requirements are Clear, 
Concise, Correct, Coherent, Complete and Confirm-able.
