A321 Neo altitude capability

For the pilots who have flown the NEO and CEO A321 both with sharklets the altitude capability for the NEO seems to be a bit on the ambitious side. The margin seems to be much smaller and Turb speed seems to be very close to green dot and Vlsin the Neo.
Have Airbus got their data correct?It is not a pleasant aircraft to be in turbulence and the autothrust seems to be very sloppy.
The aircraft being compared are an A321 Neo with Leap amd an A321 Ceo with IAE V2533, both with sharklets.
