> That could be said about a lot of things. I have not seen a project fail because they didn't use tests, so you shouldn't bother to write any?

This is a false equivalency. Commit messages do not validate that the program functions. I can just throw random garbage into the commit messages and the program with tests will still function.

I know what you are trying to convey, I just think it's a bad comparison.

You can remove all tests and the program will still work fine.
