I dunno', they're already having problems keeping tweets sync'd across servers. Several times have I seen a 404 for a tweet that someone else is staring at.

That's a basic server scaling issue. Showing up in Twitter production. I'm not so sure they've even kept the old bones intact.

Well, new stuff includes the new Datacenter that Elon Musk personally moved all those servers into. Even if it was legacy old servers that were working, they're effectively new given the amount of changes that could occur at a new datacenter.
