: never seen this as a formula // Asker wants a formulaic phrase, so you'd have to search for the whole thing. In any case, it doesn't look natural. To convince the asker, you should cite an example from a similar context. // Why not give one?

Well, I guess you could type "add complexity to" in a search engine and see over two million examples :) // Your point is well taken. I have a different opinion. There is a lot of examples in mathematical contexts available in the net. // *eyeroll*

: Nothing wrong with this, but probably too colloquial for the context.
