decomplicate
Remove unnecessary complexity
To decomplicate is to make something less complicated—to simplify or untangle: Let me decomplicate this for you.
The word is informal and somewhat redundant with simplify, but emphasizes the removal of complexity rather than the achievement of simplicity.
It suggests undoing complication that shouldn't have been there in the first place.
