I haven't gone back and retested all of them. I frankly don't see the
point. I'd rather focus on knocking down the CCDE and more CCIE's.
Plus, it would be like a Doctor re certifying his EMT (emergency
medical technician) certification, kinda pointless. The only case where
I could see an engineer needed to recert on their professional level
certs would be.
1. if there was a bonus involved at work
2. if it was required for instruction purposes
Luckily at my work, we don't get bounties on certs, and none of us teach.
