I mean, so what though? I feel like we complain about technical debt often without acknowledging that the point of taking on debt, traditionally, is to capture potential growth. Sure it'll be a hassle to be the guy who has to handle the eventual revamp, but that's just a reason for that guy to ask for more money.
