Yes. In the same vein: Less is invariably more. All of this reminds me of the funny line from George in Seinfeld. He was pretending to be an architect and implied that he was the one who created the impressive Guggenheim on Fifth Avenue (am I right?): "Didn't take very long, either." Draw your own conclusions from this. I'll resist.
