Speaking as one of those who has probably had 90% of their code ripped and replaced by better code, I can only agree - its always nice to see people jumping in to make things better and cleaning out the cobwebs :-) Thanks for the rest of your thoughts, I think they provide a good perspective, which I agree with.
