I've just seen a sentence which talked about something being seen as a

In that case, why not just say 'simple' or 'obvious'?

Can anyone here explain please?

Is it just about the latest fashion-speak?

Management speak, certainly not the latest, it's years and years old.
Meaning something you don't have to think about before making a decision.

Opposite (in management speak) - challenging - meaning I haven't got the
faintest idea what to do, but hopefully somewhere along the way somebody
will figure something out.
