I did not say the board is complex, but the lack of space in the left hand side is hard to do combos, even though you have 45 moves. Color bombs would never be easy to make in this level, even with 45 moves, because you can only make it vertically. It also makes it hard if you want to make it in the middle because you can only slide the column with 3 candies, but not with 1 candy (unless you try to make a color bomb from the sides, but it is still difficult because you have only use the only other column to make color bombs). Although color bomb takes out one color, 5 colors makes the level only slightly easier because a color does not occupy the spaces of the level too much, but I do admit combos are easier to do. Unfortunately, you need to know which color you should delete because if you don't, you will accidentally release the locked candies which you should know it already.

For the poll, a poll has a benefit of pleasing everyone when it comes to expressing their opinions on a level. Although there might be voters that have hit hard episodes or not, a poll is a tool to compromise both the voters who have hit hard episodes and the voters who have not hit hard episodes. It is biased to only refer to the voters who have hit hard episodes. The other also has a say, don't they? The fact that they passed this level too. This also makes it hard to lower the difficulty of early episodes. You could always change your stance in the poll because the poll is always there. For comments, it is harder to reach a consensus as seen in this level and 181. Moreover, we see the difficulty of the level from the poll using median, which excludes extreme data, and 70% of votes in insanely hard seems reasonable because the highest difficulty is hard to make consensus. We need to make sure that most people agree with the difficulty of the highest grade. Now, it gets below than 70%, so the difficulty should be downgraded later.
