More often, it connotes triteness or oversimplification —e.g.: “But most mental health experts say closure is no holy grail, only rendered so by people seeking facile solutions to complex problems.” ( Christian Science Monitor; Mar. 28, 2002.).Usage notes show additional guidance on finer points of English usage.
