I do, in fact, work at a tech company, and do, in fact, write a lot of code to do my job. However, it is not a software company, as it does not sell proprietary software directly.
> Rewriting perfectly working code is never valuable.
It might be far more valuable than the other option, i.e. releasing the proprietary software under a free software license. An AGPL licensing issue will only ever, in a worst case scenario, force you to choose one of those two options, no more.
