> none of them are really designed to handle that much complexity

Be careful what you wish for! I had used Nikola, but every release kept handling more complexity. Which meant an ever increasing number of options, but most annoyingly a large number of warnings due to config options that had changed, been obsoleted, interacted differently etc. Nikola is one of those tools that generates an initial config file for you, which exacerbates the problem since you probably don't use all the config items, and then have this option warning mess due to those items.

Yes you can install a version pinned version of the tool, but then have to do the same with all the dependencies. Before you know it, Wordpress seems easy and trivial.
