Backwards Compatibility & User Trust • The leftover code in WordPress to retain backwards compatibility doesn’t slow it down • If you’re using latest techniques, none of those code even run • The only thing it does is basically take up bytes of space on your hardisk • With all that however, knowing that you will be able to upgrade safely creates a strong user trust. • This trust is the basis of the growth of WordPress
