Has anyone put together a list of the D&D retroclones / derivatives and the like in order of relative rules complexity? I'm avoiding the "crunch" label so as not to offend sensitive readers.
I'm talking everything from Swords & Wizardry (all 3 flavors) to Hackmaster (2 flavors) and everything in between and beyond.

I realize that much of this would be subjective, and the complexity label might work better as a general banding system.
If it hasn't been done yet, would there be an interest in seeing one get completed?
