Excellent point. There is a gut reaction with coders to throw away code when they should try a bit harder to work with whats there already.


Heh, what's funny is that I do it all the time. I'll see a library that has a bunch of cruft, and say "Well this looks like a good concept, but I'll just rewrite it!" It's almost comical how much it happens :)
