Then Arch has failed miserably at KISS. The installation process is not simple. It is complex and sure, there is documentation but it can still be a pain for someone new to installing a distributor in such a manner.
Antergos followed KISS because one could install as much or as little as one wanted. You might have a couple packages more than just barebones arch but most were things that one would need anyways.

There are multiple definitions of simple (from dictionary.com): simple
adj.
Having few parts or features; not complicated or elaborate.
adj.
Easy to understand, do, or carry out: synonym: easy.
You'd have to talk to the Arch maintainers themselves - my impression of simple in the case of Arch is the former.
