When I am in that situation I often find that I update the work and make very little change to how it is built. In complex courses I often try and build on top of what already works.
Where I am building new content I build it how I would build content normally.
For me I will try and build everything as simply/elegantly as possible, try not to use, triggers, variables, layers if I can.
It is very easy to say I am having problems because of the way things are built, but my rule in these cases is to only ever say that once. At that point I now have ownership of the courses. As you suggest courses can be built in many ways and there is no real right or wrong way as long as they work. There are really only more elegant solutions. Good Luck in your new role.
