Hey Richard,

I think there are two separate issues here. Lot of people looking at
Fusion aren't choosing it for technology, they are choosing it for
media, as 1GE L3 ports are not available. So options are

a) L2 aggregation
b) Fusion
c) Wait for JNPR to release some MX244 with 4xQSFP28 + 40xSFP+ box,
which has attractive pay-as-you-go for 1GE deployments.

I'm sure there is another set of problems where EVPN and Fusion are
competition options, but for service providers fusion's value proposal
mainly is low rate ports, ports which Cisco and Juniper do not really
offer anymore on L3 devices.
