I am only guilty for the first 100 LOC, the rest is not my fault :)

We had a guy who wrote the other 14900 loc in a similar situation and made the whole thing really crappy. He used to say we cannot blame him because he inherited the crappy 100 loc in the first place.

After a few hundred new lines ones would think a rewrite might have been more appropriate.

There is no single point in time where a rewrite is "more appropriate" than adding this one line of code. At least not when you have a deadline.

Moot point. You still created patient zero. ;)
