This is great work. I'm not sure why somebody would want to run iPhoto instead of just upgrading to Photos, but to each his own.

Since it takes a few clicks to get there from the article, here's the app that does all the work for you: https://github.com/cormiertyshawn895/Retroactive

iPhoto has much better keyword handling, better support for drag and drop (which for a long time was missing entirely from Photos), and the smart albums in Photos is still not as powerful as they were in iPhoto.

Because Photos is a horrible app with multiple issues that doesn't come close to any if the previous Apple offerings (esp. Aperture)?

Just a small sample of issues:
