I personally don't want the Nexus platforms to be bloated down with
un-needed features.. Hence why the 6500 has had some many problems over the
years.. The Nexus platforms were meant to be data center platforms. Most
data centers you don't need large routing tables, you don't need MPLS, you
don't need carrier features..

What I need from the Nexus platforms is what they offer us today. High
resiliency and high port density.. If you want carrier features, buy a box
meant to be used for carrier services..

My 2 cents...  :)
