Agree-ish - buttt makes me think: How about... dont keep a dependency you could replace with an afternoon of programming? Factor, re-factor, and (most especially) DELETE should be tools in the toolbox -- but see if you need it/keep it (e.g. protoype it in, etc first) before you re-write.

> Factor, re-factor, and (most especially) DELETE Lines of code is a passable metric for the quality of work if they are considered "spent", not "created". That is, the programmer's work is better, all else being equal, if it takes fewer lines of code. Who said so? Knuth, Wirth, Dijkstra, Perlis?..
