    If the application has not even run a full decade in production, how can it be considered legacy? Especially in finance, legacy is from the previous millennium, or older! Please don't ask how I know.

    You exaggerate slightly, requiring it to be beyond a quarter-century before it's "legacy". All it requires is a few lava flow antipatterns in each source file, some "here be dragons" areas, and the occasional chunk of system where all the people who ever knew how it works have gone, been wented, or even passed on from this mortal coil.

    A decade is easily enough time for that.

    Actually a good use case to try and utilize AI to write the unit tests (and check them of course) maybe
