We're going far off into a tangent but to answer your question:

- the code in question constantly produced production bugs

- the code in question was extremely hard to debug when said production bugs surfaced

- everyone complained about that code being problematic, including other more senior engineers with 300k+ salaries

- all the above problems went away and everyone was pleased when I broke it up into smaller pieces
