The date doesn’t matter so much (to me at least). Legacy means lack of tests and the inflexibility to change the system. Working on these systems it’s easy to have a part of the app become obsolete in 2-3 years because it’s written by one someone who doesn’t really care about technology and they want to “deliver for the business” so they crank out some shitty code with no tests, documentation, or design of any kind (eg encapsulation). The business rules are complex and not explained or understood. Then the main developer leaves and all that knowledge vanishes out the door.
