I'm just saying a lot of the target they are aiming to replace is VBA applications slapped on top of Access DBs, and Lovecraftian nightmares born out unholy fornication of Batch scripts and unintelligible spreadsheet formula.

I'm not saying your wrong, just pointing out that even if this is a ticking time bomb it's a ticking time bomb that is using conventional explosives replacing a cesium based nuclear time bomb that is already counting down the seconds.
