Actually, your problem is more likely to be this line:

Legacy is computer industry-ese for "[rubbish] old stuff that we hate and
that's why we upgraded in the first place, but we can't seem to get rid
of all of it and so now we have to support both the new incomprehensible
stuff and the [rubbish] old stuff."
