Oh, I know it's popular - it's just frustrating, because the boxes  
lack critical edge features.  They're definitely multiple-mpps beasts,  
as you say, far better suited for core than edge due to the  
combination of high speed and low edge functionality, IMHO.

Sorry, sometimes I mistake your existential crises for technical
insights.
