Part of the reason X doesn't kill it for good is that people might
accidentally leave the tour. But there's clearly a risk of frustration.

Matt is right to point out that this is definitely still early stages. And we need to do remote user tests like we usually do.

In any case, I think the frustration about the [X] dismissing but not ending the tour is exacerbated by the strange nature of the test tour. Most tours are not going to run on every page load, regardless of whether you dismiss them or not.
