Etymology

Overly simple.

In a manner that simplifies a concept or issue so that its nuance and complexity are lost or important details are overlooked.

Usage notes

• Simplistic is not to be conflated with simple; simplistic implies simplicity that distorts the topic, whereas simple does not. Degrees of comparison such as "more simplistic" and expressions such as "overly simplistic" accordingly are in some sense tautological and some speakers avoid them.
