The way out of complexity? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

exit

'the way out' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'of complexity?' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'EXIT' is hidden in the letters of 'complexity'.

(Other definitions for exit that I've seen before include "[DOOR] ?" , "Road leaving motorway" , "Way to leave" , "Means of egress" , "Relinquish the lead" .)
