hey,
There is nothing wrong with layer 2 aggregation switches in my opinion, the only technical advantage in my opinion to using SP Fusion for a layer 1 extension to a router compared to a layer 2 switch is that SP Fusion is one device to configure and monitor instead of two.
Except that it's not L1. It's still L2 with 802.1BR (or vendor proprietary version of that).
You highlight the exact reasons why one should stay away from fusion/fex/satellite - features must explicitly be ported/accommodated/tested for them. Not all performance data is available, OAM/CFM is a struggle etc.
