I completely agree. I recently started looking for this topic because the feeling I get is that everything is messy and its becoming a nightmare just to think about it. In my case, I'm taking more responsabilities and I think we need to start implementing best practices with our engineering team. Does that makes sense to you?

Better practices going forward make sense. But rewriting working code should have a business case when the working code solves a business problem. Scaling and maintenance are second order problems. Success is the first order problem.
