As I've noted, I'm not sure I believe that's true of current generation
gear, and if it *is*, then it should cost manufacturers business.

There are boxes that haven't aged out of the network yet where that's an
issue, some are more datacenter-centric than others. force10 e1200 was
one platform that had this limitation for example.

So making sure manufacturers are producing gear that's BCP38-compliant,
and buyers have it on their tick-list, is still a productive goal, too.

Cheers,
