True Complexity
- Complexity is a metaphysical concept, not simply a matter of initial mystery.
- Something can be complex even if we understand its workings, like an iPhone.
iPhone Analogy
- An iPhone would have seemed miraculous in the first century due to its perceived complexity.
- Today, teenagers can easily disassemble and understand iPhones.

- Specified complexity is not just randomness, but complexity arranged meaningfully, like a code.
- Examples include binary code specifying phone numbers or craters on the moon forming words.
