Keeping the clean version around seems dangerous advice.

You know it won't get maintained if there are changes / fixes. So by the time someone may needs to rewrite the part, or application many years later (think migration to different language) it will be more confusing than helping.

Easy solution: write tests to ensure equivalent behavior.
