    It helps immensely to be running pre-ST-merge 12.0 code where possible
    (some situations in non-trivial networks can be positively affected by
    post-merge code, but you're not likely to find 36xx or 720xVXRs in
    central locations in such networks). You are not risking your
    "coolness points" to still be running 12.0(21)S8. :)
