You're probably right, but the N7k is quite close in

They're a surprisingly respectable box, and modulo
"business unit focus" concerns, it's looking difficult
to justify a Sup2T...

I'm thinking all those other non-MPLS features, e.g., QoS,
routing, EVC, e.t.c.

My experience has been that the entire box, pretty much all features, are "on a par" with 6500, including QoS and routing. The only significant things I can think that are missing are L2VPN, service modules and non-IP routing.

Of course your original message was ASR versus Nexus, and you're doubtless correct that the ASR leads in every respect; but the 6500 versus Nexus is, in my opinion, a much closer run thing.
