One contract I had, I dropped the line count of an inherited codebase by 50%. Much of which was necessary to simply be able to run (and debug) it interactively.

It still ran. It ran correctly. It ran faster than previously.

I never quite grasped what it was doing.

The company folded some time after I left it.
