I really wonder Spolsky didn't just do what Golang did and use the transpiled code as a basis for the continued work. Of course this predates the success of Golang but it's not a very far fetched idea, I bet Jeff Atwood would've suggested it. Of course happy they didn't because if they did Fogbugz would've had an incremental upgrade path on PHP all the way into modernity and would have been an acceptable thing to work on, preventing Trello from ever existing most likely.
