Yeah, I just added that bit in to keep away the "ACKTUALLY if it's written UNIVAC III assembly you have to rewrite it" answers. Technically correct, but not what I need.
There's no practical problem I'm immediately facing here, I just didn't understand some of the opinions I was hearing and was curious. (All my hobby projects are either new software from scratch or adding features to existing code, right now)
Makes sense. As for the opinions, over time people end up cussing the same tools that were introduced to fix their previous problems, all tools can be misapplied 🤷
