That's my point :-).

We have several MX480's that have a ton of 10Gbps ports, but only need a
handful of 100Gbps ports. The MPC7E works out to be a little cheaper
than the MX1000 in that regard.

For cases where we need more than a handful of 100Gbps ports for edge
applications, the MX10000 is cheaper than an MX480 with MPC7E's or MPC10E's.
