When there's a *lot* of code, I usually just wait until I need to go in and fix
 a bug or something, then revise a bunch of stuff while I'm in there.  It may
look nicer when you're done, but usually isn't hurting anything by just staying
 as-is.

I found Promises annoying when they first came around.  There was so much hype
about making code "more readable" and I didn't see it as much of an
improvement. I never found callbacks to be confusing, except maybe when I first
 started out.  Once I got used to Promises I stopped seeing them as clunky and
ugly and learned to like the resolve/reject paradigm and catch().  It took me a
 while to get there, though.  async/await was easy to adjust to, and I think
they really bring that structure/readability improvement.
