if you are writing experimentally,
you may want to rip up the function
you wrote last week
there are architectural problems
this is why reuse is so hard
architects
get to a site
bulldoze the place
splitting strings into arrays of strings
even fairly major architectural changes can be done without throwing away the code
don't rewrite the whole thing
1% of the work gets you 99% of the bang
the idea that new code is better than old is absurd
