Removal of unused or old code

[SoZ0]

The problem

There is a lot of old code that is not being used or may be in use but is not being used. This should be removed. Including removing variables no longer in use any more and removing large comments that are not needed anymore.

Vision

A cleaner code base that is easier to read and understand, ideally using our new systems in place
