I think the people doing the rewrites genuinely believe it will be an improvement, and they could be correct. I get the instinct to “don’t fix what ain’t broken”, but that is what staging is for. There is no need to make sacred cows, and this seems like a perfect opportunity to improve security and integration testing as well.

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel (people who think BL2 is better than TPS are wrong)
