Darby,
Over this past month I have been working with well-prepared students here at
NMC to help them cope with 4-switch scenarios. From what I have seen,
students who are in the habit of creating good VLAN diagrams cope well.
Students who think they don't have time to diagram the VLANs do not.
The challenge is primarily one of organizing the information. Candidates
need to develop good diagramming skills in order to succeed. In addition,
the 4-switch scenario increases the early configuration burden - it is just
a lot more layer-2 work that needs to be done.
Just my 2 cents!

Is it really that much more difficult with an extra
switch or two?
Hmmm...
Well I guess if one introduces the criss-cross for
redundancy.
Maybe if one gets more explicit in terms of
spanning-tree.
Trunking should not pose that many more challenges.
QoS could get more interesting.
VTP - Could get more interesting - but it is
relatively simple as-is - so if you had two switches
or 50 it should not matter as much.
I would actually think that it would be more welcome
as more points would directed towards switching.
Exactly what are you worried about getting more
complex?
DTP?
