I would "bump" the issue for this specific case, but I think it is a very laughable mistake to argue over the definition of new.
Rupert, I strongly suggest you actively search as quickly as possible as Stuart suggested, or return your product. Not the first time this has happened so don't take it personally. It would also be cool if someone has: 1) A contact list of devs who are chill and want to program new things such as a Supermicro SuperServer E200-9A with an A2SDi-4C-HLN4F motherboard in it. 2) A specific recommendation for an alternative device that will provide similar sweet functionality. My idea of (2) is one of the following: https://www.openbsd.org/octeon.html https://www.openbsd.org/sgi.html ... but I could be totally wrong, I am not that smart and very busy.
