Should we remove legacy code that no understands?

[jjmaldonis]

Right now I think there are some code blocks that no one understands. They are all in version control now, so should we just delete them? This would help us keep track of the working code more easily imo.

For example, there are a whole bunch of fuss files in selection. Do we need/want them all?

There are also files with the names: fitpred.py, fitpred_bests.py, fitpred_new.py in the predator directory. Do we want all three of those? Or is fitpred_new.py the "new" one that we want?

Same with io/read_xyz_v0.py and io/read_xyz.py. Can we avoid this since they are all in version control anyways?

I agree removing older versions of code like io/read_xyz_v0.py. But something like fuss is just a selection scheme and I don't think we should remove them at all.
