    Problems with the legacy libraries of EASY

Anything was placed in libraries without giving it much thought
Few developers knew what was in the library so little was reused
A serious library needs thorough tests, a stable API, support multiple use cases and communicated to developers. Hence it quickly takes more time than it saves.

Problems with current copy-paste habits

A lot lot of variants of similar code snippets populate the code base
Developers may copy any version they happen to find, not the latest and greatest
