Product managers really love convincing themselves that rewriting a perfectly functional codebase in the latest shiny framework will somehow revolutionize the user experience. Spoiler alert: users literally cannot tell the difference between 47ms and 49ms load times. They just want the damn button to work.
Meanwhile, that "legacy" code from 2016 is sitting there like a reliable old friend, battle-tested and actually generating revenue. But no, we need to spend six months migrating to the new hotness because someone read a Medium article about it. The kicker? After all that effort, the performance improvement is measured in single-digit milliseconds that literally nobody notices.
The real tragedy is the developer who has to maintain this "modernized" codebase when the framework becomes obsolete in two years. Circle of life, baby.
