These tests have proven to be:
a) very expensive, as they spin up many nodes, and perform long setup
b) are not testing anything specific, they just fuzz functionality
that is already tested otherwise
c) have not helped pinpoint any issues in living memory
d) are very flaky, making for really bad signal-to-noise, so much
that devs usually just restart without even looking at the logs
e) even if we were to look at the logs, we'd be unable to reproduce
due to the inherent randomness involved in these tests
f) are really noisy neighbors, causing other tests to flake as well,
further muddying the water
All in all, these tests are a waste of time, and source of
frustration.
