Does your codebase feel easier to sustain each year?

No, at my last work, it was such a pain even doing a minimal change: codebase without unit tests, team lead doing gatekeeping and keeping it old school (some JavaEE 5) and with old servers (there are a lot of CVEs in dependencies and in the servlet server we were using (could not update to latest, since the Java version being used is ancient as well).

A pure "throw away" would be much cheaper
