BGP4 is a mystery to most of these development groups. True the RFCs provide standards for basic functionality. But integration into an existing network is much different than testing at the UNH lab. The most famous casualty of faulty BGP implementation was the GRF, acquired by Ascend, which should have been what Juniper is today. But alas, it turned out a non-entity because it took 5 years to debug BGP.

Fun is right that the engineering task is too difficult for most of the other startups.
