Oh, I get it. It's a politically-correct, bidness-safe way of saying
you did something fundamentally wrong and have to re-design the whole
damned thing. Oddly, my spell-checker sees "refactor" as not-a-word.

I'll have to remember that one - I don't rewrite my code, I
refactor(sp?) it.

I notice they cite Agile and Extreme (but not Waterfall) in that
definition. That's funny. Every time I've been involved in a shop that
prayed from one of those bibles, agony and failure were the
words-of-the-day... for just that reason.

They always come up with convoluted ways of stating the simplest things,
and the most complex ways of performing the simplest functions.

On second thought... maybe I'll just forget that one.
