I think this says more about Randy's specific choice/luck in hardware
than the general state of play. Unfortunately in low end CPE land
hardware ships with a specific set of software features, and generally
there is no (economic) model for the vendors to ever offer new features.
People don't buy "support" for low end CPE. The way to get new software
is to buy new hardware, which is really only a good solution when the
feature set required is stable over long periods of time.
There are plenty of low end residential style boxes that "just work"
with Comcast's setup out of the box with vendor images.
