artificial complexity

The purposeful complication of a process, policy, or offer in order to substantially reduce clarity, usually in hope that consumers of such will overlook a portion to their detriment.
The lawyers who drafted my latest auto insurance policy found a way to fill it with 127 pages of legalese. This is definitely artificial complexity, as it could've easily been conveyed in 10 pages.

Mujaddid Complex

An unjustified feeling of superiority over traditional Islamic scholarship, coupled with a drive to create a revolution in Islamic understanding. Often driven by ignorance, arrogance, and certification from prestigious Western institutes.

It’s derived from the word mujaddid.
Person 1: Did this guy just say that the Quran doesn’t teach the virgin birth of Jesus?

Person 2: Yeah, and so explicit in the Quran and all exegetes agree that Jesus had no father. That dude is suffering from a mujaddid complex.
