I'll take your 'legacy' and raise you an 'on-premise' (as in not in the cloud). I assume Oracle and Microsoft marketing want us to believe that premise is the singular of premises? I'm afraid I think different...
Bootstrapping does have a fairly rich history in computing. It has found an excellent meaning or two. Does it need another not quite analogous one? I dunno, I was in business and in Private Equity (at a very junior level) for a long while before I was in computers, and prefer the jargon of classic finance I guess. Likewise I don't like 'burn-rate' and 'runway' as the naive twins of 'cash-flows'. I could go on but my stuffy finance background is never likely to win me a popularity contest...
