It seems more imperfect shortly after release than after a while.

Me neither. I get very upset when they say that they won't fix things in
4.2.3 (which is supposedly a long-term support release) and they usually
fix it. I take for granted that I'm not the only upset one.

I don't really understand what you're trying to say here.
Anyhow, I apply the same logic here as I do in IOS-land. You start to get
on 12.0(32)SYx when X is above 3 or 4. Same with SRE for 7600, SRE4-5 or
so started to be ok.
Cisco is not alone in this, I'd say most vendors have similar problems.
