The solution is probably going to involve dropping our dangerous utopian ideals about how complexity and deviation from perfection is problems that must be solved by any means necessary.

The world is a complex place where nearly nothing fit into an simplistic vision of simplicity and virtually no other engineering discipline shy away from gradual improvements and complexity management the way the IT sector does.

There is plenty of examples of real world road, water and sewage infrastructure where the system as a whole have continuity dating back centuries where every problem occurring was fixed in place without anyone ever redesigning the system by wiping and redesigning, and this is a source of pride not shame for the people working with those infrastructures.

The sooner we go away from the idea that just one more redesign using X tools in just the right way width the right team will finally crate an system that don't need constant maintenance and refactoring to keep serve the needs of it's users.
