Eliminating the CE requirements not only would foster an environment of unsafe and unprofessional installations, but also subjects a VA license to backlash from reciprocal states. The NEC is an ever-evolving document, and a qualified craftsman should be committed to the training it takes to learn recent changes and updates. The requirement if anything is too lax in that it only requires a few hours ever other year. Requiring proper licensing and training in the skilled trades is logical and welcomed by competent craftsmen.
