It would be interesting if it were possible to run a controlled
experiment: In one group, VistA would be reworked as needed, even if
entire applications were rewritten from scratch. In the second group, a
process of incremental "patching" would be followed (much as is the
case now). I would conjecture that over a suitable horizon (say 10
years) the first group would end up spending *less* on software
development, maintenance and support than the second group spends on
support and maintenance.
