You forget the 'trick' questions, the gotcha's. Sure you could simulate some gotcha's in a sim question but what is there to guess in say a question about access-lists? A couple of answers with different directions the list is applied to, maybe a couple of different ways to apply the access-lists. How do you guess where you place them?
These sort of questions are needed, they test your knowledge and understanding. If I get a question like this I already know what I am looking for. But even when I read the question I already have a good grasp of the answer, I eliminate some after that. This is hardly guessing.

If it would be so much guessing why do so many; if not most, fail the CCNA exam? I am not even talking about the harder exams here.

Don't get me wrong: more sim questions would be a good thing. All simlet is not.

If it would be more cli stuff do I get the entire cli then? Can I test things? I would like that!

I agree that labs and sims take more skill, that is probally why they still label the 8 hour one CCIE ;-)
