> You know well that after about 20 years of writing your own software, you get to a point where it's just infeasible to maintain your own projects

wat. The easiest software to maintain is your own. If someone has been coding for decades, and always writes code that devolves into un-maintainability... something is really off-track there.

Infeasible not because it's difficult but because you have more awareness of your limited time that you have to prioritize, and maintaining software falls lower and lower on the list of things you should do.
