Interestingly, no CBSA in the nexus office (also mentioned by others in other thread), I only realized that after walking out and thinking back there was only one US CBP officer I spoke to. If CBSA isn't needed for renewal they really should just open up the nexus appointment to all GE centers instead of border ones only.
Practically, you have a point, but think what would happen if CBP opened up Nexus interviews at all locations where CBP processes GE. Nexus is $50 and comes with more benefits and GE is $100. It would cannibalize GE applications and lead to a revenue decline. Consider also that CBP must somehow split Nexus fees with CBSA. My guess is that the absence of CBSA officers is temporary, but time will tell.

Also, I rather like my Nexus ID number, as I've had it since the very beginning of Nexus, before there was even GE (I think). Not sure if GE would give me a different ID number. Would be a pain to change it on all the FF profiles &c.
When I moved from GE to Nexus, my KTN stayed the same. Not sure about the reverse.
