You may well be an expert now working with "Application X"...

However the hair pulling was so much that you'd never add it to your resume (even though it might sound impressive) for fear that a future employer might think your the ideal candidate to "migrate", "integrate" or otherwise work with "Application X".

Feel free to elaborate on why... (e.g. their APIs change monthly, there is/was no API, etc.)
