Complexity is in the eye of the beholder :-)
Some people (myself, for example) find the dual nature of Lua tables 
simple, elegant and powerful.

If you are not comfortable with it, just think of arrays and hash tables 
as two different structures and use *either* one or the other. Don't 
make holes in arrays (use 'false' or a special marker if you need) and 
they won't make holes in your code :-)
