> > Leaders who have delivered successful rewrites often describe the process as one of the greatest accomplishments in their career, but they never describe it as fun. > This sounds made-up. What leaders? Why would a leader ever describe a rewrite as one of the greatest accomplishments of their career? I've never heard of such a thing. And why shouldn't it be fun? Rewriting something to wipe away all the old horrible tech debt and start over from scratch can be super-fun! It's also pretty hard to argue against a statement like that; if you point out someone who says otherwise, they can just say "they're not a leader". If anything, it's somewhat circular, since basically they're defining "leaders" as people who agree with them.
