Parsimony
From RationalWiki
Parsimony or the principle of parsimony is a method for selecting between equally valid hypotheses based on the complexity of each. Using the principle of parsimony the simplest hypothesis, or the one with the fewest free parameters, will be preferred over more complex hypotheses if other selection criteria are equal between them.
