They did not say git should replace this parser, though you can argue they implied it.
They did not say git should change language.
They did not say "every few years, we should torch our code and rewrite from scratch, using new tools." That's a fever dream that barely resembles their words in a way that makes you super right and them super unreasonable.
A key phrase they said was "we shouldn't keep doing new things like we did back then". New things. That's not saying to rewrite anything.
