Any point in doing CCNA specialist anymore?

The new CCNA (Out in Feb 2020) will replace the following certifications:

  • CCNA Cloud
  • CCNA Collaboration
  • CCDA
  • CCNA Data Center
  • CCNA Industrial
  • CCNA Routing and Switching
  • CCNA Security
  • CCNA Service Provider
  • CCNA Wireless

Any point in passing these specialist exams anymore if they are being phased out with just one generic CCNA?

To me it looks like Cisco are undervaluing the old CCNA and making CCNP the goto networking cert to have in the future and the pre-requisit companies are going to start demanding for jobs.

Going for a CCNA after Feb 2020? hey kids just go straight to CCNP with 2 exams and skip CCNA!

All the hard work we Network engineers have put in to obtaining a CCNA with a specialist cert and planned on going onto CCNP will feel cheated, now that you can just fast forward your Cisco Networking certs.

What everyones thoughts on this?
