Kelly deals with this by looking at complexity from other angles. For example, a complex world can give you a long sequence of observations persuading you that it's a simple world and then suddenly "change its mind", but a simple world cannot pretend that it's complex.
Why not? It would look almost exactly like the complex worlds imitating it, wouldn't it?
