​And FWIW I fundamentally disagree. :-)

Non-voting tests are routinely ignored. If your change breaks a test, you
should either fix your code or update the test; both of these actions are
conscious responses to the outcome of the test, and if they're not part of
the pre-merge workflow they too rarely don't happen.
