It took a couple months to get the pipeline out of their laptop.

Worth it, yes, as we found interesting things in there which explained why they were so reluctant to deploy upgrades.

No, rather a particular environment with monkey patched libraries, alias for various versions of compliers, and dozens of env variables that happen to work or not work well with the desired config.
