I hate to break it to ya, but if you do cheats like this when you use reliable off the shelf COTS solutions, imagine the shortcuts they're going to do if/when they try it do this themselves. Salesforce isn't cheap, but its not exactly expensive either. However, with this short sighted shortcut you did, you certainly cost your company big. That data is useless. If you upgrade, transition, migrate you now have to spend employee time fixing what was a fixed cost. Human time is expensive. But what is more expensive is putting artificial costs where they don't need to be.
