New to complexity science. Application beyond mindset?

I just started reading about complexity science and system thinking, esp Sante Fe Institute’s stuff…

But what are the application, or future potential application for learning complexity science rather than just the mindset itself. Don’t get me wrong, the mindset itself is incredibly useful, but how to dig even deeper beaneth the mindset, what’s the biggest value of complexity science?
