The simplest combo of filters and transclusions? That could be wildly different for each person.
For each person, It would be what is easiest to understand and maintain for that person, based on each person's intertwingled way of seeing things, based on each person's experiences (how he/she has done things before, with the features/tool he/she is familiar with, etc. etc. etc.). So done in a way that is likely easily recognisable long after initially written. Likely done à-la "git 'er done" with what one knows right away, maybe with what one knows to look for without ever having worked with, maybe refactored later with newly learned things (say listops, for example), or things with which one now feels comfortable using. There is no one simplest solution for all. There are a plethora of solutions, one being the "simplest" for one group of people, another solution being the best for another group of people, and another for another group, ad infinitum/nauseum.. What you may consider the simplest, I consider too complex. What I consider the simplest, you might consider too complex. Yeah, I just went philosophical. Too hungry for supper at the moment to get cracking on some code. But I am mentally chewing on it, while also thinking about chowing down on some literal food...
