Of course, I could be wrong, if something were currently observable in nature too complex to have natural origins.
Quantum mechanics does not rule out that natural properties may be too complex to have a statistically reasonable chance of arising within a finite amount of time in a system of limited scope.
The chances that you can drop the shards of a shattered glass on the floor, and have them hit and bounce in such a way that they reassemble into the configuration of the original glass is not impossible. No law of physics, classical or quantum mechanical, precludes it. But it is overwhelmingly unlikely to occur such that if it is observed to occur, especially multiple times, then some better explanation than exclaimation of "freaky!" would be demanded.

You're hung up on "natural". What difference would it make if God created the system of water marks in Mycoplasm_Labaritorium or if it is the creation of man? The system is still irreducibly complex.
No, it't not "irreducibly" complex. Paths of natural reduction is easy to conceive. It's just a matter of calculating the odds of such natural reduction correctly, and comparing that against the odds of either evidenced, or otherwise unevidenced, intelligent design.
You god is an unevidenced presumptibe designer. The odds of such a designer existing is vastly more infinitesimal than any seeming improbably, but physically possible natural event nontheless occuring naturally.
