TLDR;

My current project has mostly easy to delete code and not easy to extend. Why? Coz shit was copy-pasted 50 times. It’s not fun to work in this project.

Same thing on my project. Thousands of lines across a few dozen files copied 100+ times. At that point there's almost no going back with everything diverging so long ago.
