    i used to believe in this; but then i learned the hard way that old/opaque code is gross game of hot potato where you will pay the price if your social standing in your organization isn’t privileged enough.

      Guess I was lucky to have a social standing privileged enough, as a junior dev.

      But also, probably because they actually required determinism, with it being critical and all.
