Just to be clear, it's not giving LPIC-1 away for free, it's extending an
existing certification. Someone not being LPIC-1 would only get the DevOps
Tools Engineer, someone who has an LPIC-1 that gets inactive in, say, two
years, would then have the existing LPIC-1 extended to be active for
another five years.

Exactly. We won't make any changes in that regard. Although, if an existing
LPIC-1 holder passes the DevOps exam, should we really force him to redo
his LPIC-1?
