>Simple shapes and colors makes it easier to tell what you're looking at. They're almost like symbols.
That's just it, all art contains these shapes and all you need to do is look for them. That's ultimately what I believe you don't like doing, you dislike the act of interpreting anything more complex than the obvious which has very little to do with the characteristics of pixel art and has more to do with your personal taste. If you really have trouble with dithering and whatnot I suggest trying to view these images on a CRT from a proper viewing distance if you can.

Ironically, displaying complex ideas with low resolution sprites is a large part of what makes pixel art interesting, so to my understanding you simply don't care for pixel art unless it's exceedingly basic. All the power to you, just don't be surprised when people have difficulty seeing things your way.
