It's difficult to say what I'm trying to express. Basically imo classic levels should be simple, good looking, and not take hours to complete. You can still put thought and detail into them but your not raping the level with loads of unnecessary crap.

That's like saying the point of pixel art is to create small, expressive images that make use of their limited space... and don't take hours to complete. Simplicity does not reflect effort. You can create something simple and appealing but it still takes just as much effort as something complex and detailed.
