Believe me. If it was up to me, I'd simplify it more, but I am not in an organization where I can drop hints and expect to change.
There is a source control in the back. It's not one of those standard ones, and it's tightly integrated to automated build and automated test system including launching tests in farm. As you can imagine, whenever something is tightly integrated, things just can't be changed. I came in fairly recently into the organization, so there isn't much I can do at this point. I just need to find a way around it.
