some of these port capabilities are weird to me.  like on the 
ACX7100-48L you can do 4x100 or 8x50, but ONLY one 40g ?!

> MX304 (well, strictly LMIC16) has the same restriction, and a need for another entry in the magic port checker (https://apps.juniper.net/home/port-checker/index.html) for restrictions beyond "SUM(port-speeds) <= 1.6T".
