Yay, I also think it doesn't add much value. Since we're chaining
command in a single test-case.

I think most people with try to debug with "-i", which exits
immediately.

The only place it would help is debugging test failures with GitHub
Actions, where developers could download artifarts for test failures
from GitHub Actions.
