By disabling tests when they detect problems, we defeat the point of 
having tests. A 'failing' test is a good test, as it detected a problem 
(hopefully not a false positive ...) before the buggy result is actually 
used for real.

It's like, say, firing a building inspector because they noticed that 
the building would fall over in case of some wind from an unanticipated 
direction, instead of making the building more sturdy, changing the 
building plan or not proceeding with actually building the building.

What problems did the tests detect?

Greetings,
Maxime.
