Considering my brain is too small for the universe, making the theory as simple as possible sounds like a good strategy when dealing with hard problems.
It’s a good strategy if “possible” means “not too simple to function correctly”. You can model a human as a point mass affected only by gravity, and this model is presumably too simple for most purposes, but it’s not clear in what sense it’s an impossible model.
