This and many other reasons means that we're not even considering
Juniper for the CPE role. We have some J series routers in the lab,
and they are staying at the last non flow based version of JunOS.
IMO Juniper has royally screwed up in the small router/CPE market.
One can hope that they won't perform similar stunts on the M/MX/T
series.
