I beg to differ. Cert is not about what people can have at home,
rather about what people can do. I don't see Storage as a dead track,
yet not many of us have those things at home.

SP track as it is right now makes no sense. It's really "just a little
bit different" R&S, arguably easier or more difficult, depending on
experience, but that's besides the point. Equipment that is used in
that exam is simply not present in SP environments. Hence, the cert is
*almost* useless. Technologies are right, but there are so many things
missing... So many.
