I like systems that are maintence free and easily replaceable. My experience so far in software engineering is that technologies die, so it should also be easy to replace the tecnology, like the hardware it runs on, the platform/os, the programming language and the framework.
In the big companies I worked, it was easier to replace a system with all its dependencies than to remove a part of it. This had nothing to with tech. It was about getting buy in from the business stakeholders and the internal risk compliance department.
