Exactly. Instead of throwing a huge amount of wikitext at it and hoping that'll cover everything, we should make our test suite more comprehensive by adding lots of new parser test. Of course there'll be *some* crazy bugs concerning weird interactions that only happen in the wild, you can't really write tests for those, but that's life.
Real-page testing is like fuzz testing; the point is never to replace explicit tests, but that it helps you find things you didn't think of yourself.
