Season 7's story wasn't incredibly complex, it was very very simple. However, the execution of that story was made overly complicated by plot switches, red herrings, dropped threads and behind the scenes business decisions. The writers themselves have admitted to changing the focus at different times during the season in order to accomodate a potential spin-off.

And I don't recall anybody in this thread having a problem with Buffy growing up, or wanting things to be the same as in early seasons, or not being able to understand the message of facing one's own fears - not only is that message painfully simple, it's also one we hear every day from a lot of other sources than just Joss.

You liked the writing in season 7, that's great for you. Other people didn't like it, that's great for them. But just because you disagree with people doesn't make them all a bunch of idiots in denial.
