This note argues that large VAR models with common cyclical feature restrictions provide an attractive framework for parsimonious implied univariate final equations, justifying on the one hand the estimation of homogenous panels with dynamic heterogeneity and a common factor structure, and on the other hand the aggregation of time series. However, starting with a too restrictive DGP might preclude from looking at interesting empirical issues.
