My point is that being able to run old stuff unmodified can be very
bad for progress.
In the 1950s and 1960s, we thought freeways, conversion of urban transit
systems from streetcars to buses, and near-universal automobile
ownership were "progress," and passenger trains -- from the streetcar to
the Sunset Limited -- were "old stuff."
*cough cough*
Running "old stuff unmodified" is a perfect expression of the old
engineer's maxim, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
