Given your goal, I would be inclined to rewrite anything I had time to
rewrite (and wholesale include anything where I did not have sufficient
time to deal).

Rewrites, when they are modest, usually result in compact code.
Such rewrites sometimes also lose features but that is not always bad.
(And, when it is bad, it usually highlights a flaw in documentation and
testing that needs to be addressed.)
