Side to back airflow?  Who thought that'd work well?

Runs IOS XR, while the recent ASR 1000 series runs IOS XE?  Consistency 
would be nice.

Re-uses the RSP nomenclature, just recently put to bed in the 7500 series.

However, adding CE (hundred-gig Ethernet) support on the initial 
datasheet is impressive, along with XE and GE.  Skipping LXE is 
interesting though.
