Never thought of it that way, but this is indeed the kind of project I like to do most. And if most programmers are like me they will always tend to bend a projects towards this edge. If it's too simple we'll add functionality that creates new challenges. And if it seems just to hard we try to figure a way around it (buying a third party library or let someone else do it..) so we can spend more time at the things we like, like the slow fading in and out of our super-fancy splash-screen...
