> they realised there's a good reason the legacy code is the way it is. I was certainly guilty of this too when I was a junior/mid. It's one thing for a junior dev to do this. But try working with a bunch of amateurs that somehow got promoted to lead because they kind of worked with some technology at their prior job. It's amazing watching a company replace domain expertise with superficial framework-of-the-day knowledge. Especially knowing that these devs will move on in a year escaping the consequences of their actions.
