Especially in the long run when you start having boost leaks, fuel supply issues, impeller wear, etc. It will cost far less to maintain a supercharger setup than anything involving a turbo. Less parts means less areas to troubleshoot if a problem occurs.
It is the total opposite, In a supercharger system larger pulley will give less boost and smaller pulley will make the blower spin faster and creates more boost. but there is a limit to how far you can go depending in the blower impeller speed capacity and keeping the belt from slipping.

Your are right in way that the a supercharger system is simpler then a turbo system but also it does reach it's max output capacity much faster then a turbo system.

Hope this help
