One thing to keep in mind with respect to that - often when teams grow you get more ivory tower types. Not that everyone wants to build an ivory tower, but you do get a lot of in-between. One thing to keep in mind about why the code was the way it was - it was designed that way to grow the company fast and to get customers. Nearly all companies that start that growth will face the inevitable - let's rebuild all of this from scratch.
