I guess it's the nature of networking business nowadays.
The technology development spiral is much steeper than in the past and has a smaller radius as well bringing us ever so faster to the next evolution.
Consider the ME3600 for example -it was absolutely not ready for production deployment when released and when it finally got to stable 15.3(3)S3/4 it was essentially EOLed by the ASRs
And the similar is true for the LCs in modular boxes.
But a company can always chose -either you set your clocks a couple years back or you are riding the bleeding edge wave or you're somewhere in the middle.
