Before you argue that the direction of evolution is toward the more complex, ask yourself what is the dominant mode of life. What class of organism is the most numerous and comprises the overwhelming bulk of biomass? What class of organism is overwhelmingly the most successful by any objective standard -- numerous, adaptive, indestructible?

Beetles? More complex than humans, half again as many appendages.
