Your point is valid. In real-world work, tests should focus on parts that are difficult to verify, and if everything passes on the first try, it's often a sign that something deserves a closer look.

That said, what I wanted to highlight in the example was a contrast — tools like Cursor and other general-purpose models often fail to even generate simple tests correctly, or can't produce tests that pass. So the goal was to show the difference in reliability.
