If you are willing to let two years pass by and then allow your database to get completely deleted, why wouldn't you rather take a small hit on delivery of some other projects in six months, possibly face a small amount of downtime, and migrate away so you get to keep your data?

Who knows if one would still be working in this project/ team/ company? Nobody gets good raise/ promotion for maintenace or migration work. Some pat on the back... May be.

If it's not going to be your problem in two years, then why would you complain about it?
