if i am running a lag, i can not resist adding a bit of resilience by

surprise!  line cards from vendor <any> do not have uniform hashing

We spread all our LAG's across multiple line cards wherever possible (wherever possible = chassis-based hardware).

I am not intimately aware of any hashing concerns for LAG's that traverse multiple line cards in the same chassis.
