I sincerely doubt that the CCIE Lab is an important profit center for
Cisco.
In any event, there would be no "conspiracy" involved.
They have the program for many reasons, mainly having to do with
creating a
pool of people who are highly knowledgeable about their equipment and
comfortable with their equipment. This is good for sales.
