Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes on a code base can reveal some opportunities for big improvements in maintainability π
Also new people are still motivated to change stuff. They are not yet worn down by bureaucracy.
Sometimes it takes a new dev coming in for management to give the greenlight for a major overhaul. Itβs shitty, but itβs true.
Ahahhahhahha. Ha.....ha. Ahem.
