As one of the people who spent months fixing old code, I can tell you
that in at least some areas, it was _not_ a non-problem.  Had it been
left untouched, there would have been problems, some of them severe and
potentially life-threatening.  Say you had an allergy to penicillin but
the medical records system returned someone else's allergy sheet
showing no allergies ...
