As I wrote, it really doesn't matter. But in principle it is possible, since this creator is a being with consciousness and intention who conceives the product and not a machine that mechanically produces the product. Therefore, he doesn't necessarily have to have complexity in order to create complexity. But as mentioned, it doesn't matter for our purposes.
