Code quality should be improved incrementally, or at least that is what most agile practitioners seem to preach. Yet from time to time teams will argue that it is necessary to do some sort of make over, that the code is too convoluted to be incrementally fixed. So is there a situation where that actually makes sense? Is this dogma that we have been following without examining nuance, or we really should never ever venture into such projects?
