You will struggle to use data to state why Broadcom has fundamentally
different risk profile than Spitfire and BT/paradise. Now I understand
for Cisco, clearly their focus will be Spitfire going forward. But
that argument can't be used to discriminate against Arista. Jericho
and Spitfire were literally designed under the same leadership.
