Really not sure what your point is, considering that I explicitly stated that games should be complex only if that makes them fun (which it can, e.g. nethack).
Plus, your examples only serve to reinforce MY point. I actually happen to find both calculus and quantum physics FUN (much moreso than geometry for example, which I personally hate), although you might not. Just like I (and many others) may find complex games to be fun while you may find them to be a chore.
Which is precisely why I think it's pretty stupid to say, "Games are NOT meant to be complex," as if it's some kind of universal principle, which it clearly isn't.
