Progress is not about replacing things that are broken. Progress
is about replacing things that work with something that work better.

Horse wagons did not stop working. But trains, cars and airplanes non
the less replaced them for transportation.

Your Basic code running on PDP-11 did not stop working, but the
new shiny VMS VAX thing was just better.

And so on.
