Smartsheet Certifications Page "Retired"

Does anyone know what's going on with the "retired" flags on the Smartsheet certs on this page?

https://smartu.smartsheet.com/page/smartsheet-certified

I got my certs for core app, administrator, and project management back in 2022 and since then the renewal process has been choppy with little communication about what's expected. Each year at Engage, I ask staff about it, and I'm always told that "changes are coming" to make the renewal process easier. It's a little weird to see the certs page marked as "retired" now. I'm hoping the certs aren't just dying after the money and time spent to earn them.

Anybody have any insider information to share?
