npub1qqukvtud3d690getk78r5xvg558rjuwlq36xk0eeddkygqhr8qxsgttjp4 (npub1qqu…tjp4) Partly that was because printing was/is arcane enough that people tended not to touch it unless they had to, so in 2004 or 2005, I was removing old “spool-a-page, print-a-page” code that had been written to work with MultiFinder on System 6 (and obsoleted when System 7 shipped in 1991) from an app that was still shipping. No possible way that code had been needed for over a decade, but they were still dragging it around because everyone was afraid of touching the printing code. 2/3
