Curious, why do you say "too little, too late, NZXT?"
-They initially scoffed at airflow focused designs. [Honorable mention goes out to their Phantom series. You are missed.] Users that tried to pack more and more power hungry components in their cases got bitten with middling or unsatisfactory operating thermals.
FYI, their H700s were their 'fix' to this via a brute force method of 'just add more fans', while maintaining the stylish and air flow choking design of the previous cases. It worked, though it could've been better if they'd just done the H7 Flow right then and there.

-There are MANY other cases like this to choose from, and they are MORE AFFORDABLE. Some of them are preinstalled with more fans; this case comes with 2 fans, when the older H710 came with 4.
What stopped them from launching meshed versions alongside the older cases? For a comparison, Fractal has their Define and Meshify(recent Pop Air too) series.

Thus, I say they want too much money for a problem they created years back.
