Probably. Most analogies fall down pretty quickly. I just feel like some of the messages on this
thread about technical debt are taking great glee in kicking other people's code, rather than
offering to help fix it.
Let's talk about how to make this change successful. Let's talk about what tools there
are, and what their strengths and limitations are. Let's talk about making people's lives
easier now, not punishing them for past mistakes.
