I'm confused. It's too much work to upgrade dependencies, but not too much time to write from scratch and maintain, in perpetuity, original code?

Yes. I've probably spent more time maintaining a trivial Rails app originally written in 2007 than I spent writing it in the first place.

But if you would have rewritten the entire app every time you needed to update the dependencies, that would have taken even more time.
