You have no idea what kind of technical debt is hiding below the surface. I don't either, but any non-trivial application has some, and hasn't Galaxy been around for a while? It tends to accumulate.

Either way, I see it as a good sign when a company takes the time to modernize a piece of software, and moving to linux sounds like a great opportunity to do that.
