I concur; when the time to diagnose and correct a problem exceeds the
amount of time to simply start over, I would definitely choose to
start over fresh. Besides getting a potentially more stable system, you
will also effectively remove a lot of debris that you probably no
longer need.

I have been in the same situation a few times and it just seemed like a
more logical action to take.
