 On the other hand - what's wrong with 4Gb on line card in big core router?
Because most of them aren't capable of supporting that? Maybe only the most expensive line cards which cost tens of thousands of dollars for just one card, and you have to have dozens or hundreds of such cards for a large Tier-1 network? Not to mention the hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars that you have to spend to get the ultra high-end chassis into which the expensive line cards have to be plugged in?

 It's cheap enough, even today. And we have not 1,000,000 routes yet.
The please feel free to upgrade the entire Internet, and come back to us when you're done.
