    Hope you are good at explaining the benefits of rewriting bad code.

    Also, shrimps IS bugs! Someone should get a tattoo of that.

      That’s easy. If you rewrite the bad code now, that creates work and costs. If you leave it as is, it might go through for a few years and is somewhat likely to be someone else’s problem by then. /s

      Absolutely!
