It doesn't really. There is plenty of old code at google, he was just saying it to people who were too scared of doing work they might need to throw away.

The promotion process explains way more of what I think you are getting at.

Throwing away code and throwing away products/features are completely different things, and only one of those is a real problem for end users.
