Certainly it sounds like planning for updatability, even occasional reimplementation, is key. Maybe also a file format upgrader rather than eternal backward support.

The accumulated cruft issue I find partly comes from not implementing things in a clear, documented way and never getting around to doing so that eventually there's just an enormous pile of barely comprehensible code.
