As a Swiss citizen I strongly disagree. Most people capable of reading and basic maths (addition!) can understand the counting of our paper ballots. My kids understand how this works since they are like 5.

Any citizen can go and check how votes are counted in their Geminde. Any citizen can check what is reported in the federal tally. I did several times. It's not rocket science.

Technically you don't even need that, you just need to be able to count, i.e. find the successor to a given number.

The rules for deciding the winners in proportional parliamentary elections are quite a bit more complex than that...

True.
