> By that logic, any technology that you can get certified in is too complicated?

That is a common view in UX, yes. It's a bit of an extreme view, but it's a useful gut reaction

> Traffic requires a certification (license) too. Must be a fake degree as well because they made it too complicated

In the US roads are designed so that you need as close to no knowledge as possible. You need to know some basic rules like the side of the road you drive on or that red means stop, but there is literal text on common road signs so people don't have to learn road signs. And the driving license is a bit of a joke, especially compared to other Western countries

There is something to be said about interfaces that are more useful for power users and achieve that by being less intuitive for the uninitiated. But especially in enterprise software the more prevalent effect is that spending less time and money on UX directly translates into generating more revenue from training, courses, paid support and certification programs
