It's still a tad unclear on the certs as Dave G. mixes talking about have 60+ cert points available with a verteran able to get as many as 21 certs. Hamma says he saw that certs "cost" 2 or 3 cert points each. With 60 cert points available, if all cost 3, that would be 20 certs, if they all cost 2, that would be 30 certs. It's obviously somewhere inbetween. If Dave meant you get 21 cert points to spend as a vet, the 1/3 figure is correct. If he meant a vet could aquire as many as 21 certs, getting all the lowest cost certs might give you 2/3 of all certs available. Obviously this is a source of confusion and depending on how you discuss it, neither figure may be "wrong" or "right".

It's really totally irrelevant anyway - inventory space will limit your role whether you posess 1/3 or 2/3 of the available certs. It will still take teamwork, specialization, and coordination to succeed. There will not be as much difference between the vet and the new player as everyone thinks as a vet will have to choose a role just as much as the new player. The vet just gets a few more choices at the base.
