Put the blame in the right place

So... 'Then, there’s the networking issue. “Your legacy machine was probably built in the days of token ring. It has isolated switches. You have 10,000 clients with hard-coded addresses to it and you want to move it to a new environment where you have IP mobility,” Trundle said. “Lift and shift explodes quickly.”'

Sounds like the desktop and networking team fouled this up, not really fair to blame the legacy system for that is it?
