Why would you want to subject everyone to another layer of bureaucracy, hassle, and additional fees to accomplish almost nothing? Half the of those who technically fail the test are passed anyhow.

It's a waste of time and resources that could be better spent doing something else.

Maybe we need a department that tests the testing centers, and then another department that tests that department, and so on and so forth. I think I've just solved the employment problem; everyone can work for the government!
