    "supporting_data": "The ETF primarily uses physical replication (direct investment in underlying securities) as its main strategy, which is a non-complex indicator. While the KIID mentions the possibility of synthetic replication (using a substitute basket with swaps), this appears to be a fallback option rather than the primary strategy. The fund's risk profile is categorized as 'lower risk,' and there are no indications of leverage, inverse strategies, or complex structured products. The ESG criteria, while adding some complexity in terms of methodology, do not inherently make the fund complex under MiFID II. The PRIIPs KID does not contain a comprehension warning, further supporting the non-complex classification. The monthly factsheet would need to be reviewed to confirm whether synthetic replication is actively used, but based on the KIID, the default assumption is physical replication. The confidence level is high (85) due to the clear physical replication strategy and lack of complex features, though the potential for synthetic replication slightly reduces confidence.",
    "counter_argument": "A counterargument could be that the mention of synthetic replication and swaps in the KIID suggests potential complexity. However, the primary strategy is physical replication, and the synthetic option is likely a fallback. The absence of leverage, inverse strategies, and complex structured products, along with the 'lower risk' profile, outweighs this potential complexity.",
    "overriding_reason": "The primary strategy is physical replication, and the synthetic option is not emphasized as the main method. The fund's risk profile and lack of complex features support the non-complex classification."
