Seems like the definition here of software is always “maintenance” of something as is, like replacing the boards on Theseus

Sometimes software is hard and 10x engineers just need to rewrite the whole thing or replace large systems

To subscribe to some world where we have to do that in “small changes” limits us

We shouldn’t make process to the weakest engineers

Why rewrite then? We should have only the strongest engineers, only those able to understand and thrive in any kind of spaghetti.
