Supposedly. But in practice this isn't true, because far too many
developers just don't care.
and having it forced in the eapi won't change this.
Enforcing src_test in a "you must explicitly say so if your package's
test suites are expected to fail" way on an EAPI bump is a clean way of
recovering from this.
You are assuming that every package has a test (false), nobody will have
src_test dummified.
