Delightfulness? I'm seeing some indication "delightness" may be a word (can't say 100%)...but it seems a poor substitution for IMO the natural version of it
It’s a “pun” on the phrase “simplify, then add lightness”. Which is a car design philosophy that amounts to “it’s easier to make a car lighter than it is to put in a bigger engine.”
This conservative approach is widely useful. For example, beginner-to-intermediate tennis games are frequently won by the player who made fewer mistakes, rather than by the player who had more flashes of brilliance.

"Simplify, then add lightness" is a famous quote from Colin Chapman, the founder of Lotus (a high-performance sports car manufacturer).
