Your reasoning appears to be along the lines of "It needs work, so I don't
want to work on it - I would rather work on something that already works".

The same work is going to have to be done no matter which code base one
starts with, unless someone suddenly decides to scrap all the work
specific to a particular branch. It's just a matter of name games etc.
