a rewrite of the application isn't possible. That would require
knowledge about what the used algorithms are, why they are implemented
as they are, that would require extensive testing with test cases that
don't exist. I can change as much as I want, as long as the core of
the application isn't touched. I can change everything until after the
initialisation of the application and the output of the results. That,
hopefully, will not break something.
