It is not a new thing, but no test is exhaustive and they must prioritize hardware tested for practical reasons. This particular test would need to check if the working NIC could reach full gigabit speeds in TX, as everything else checked out.
Regardless, it cannot be said that they do not have regression testing or are irresponsible in that sense, as they provide important services to the community in exactly this area.

My expectation is that every non-dodgy manufacturer of a network device would test the features they're developing. So, when (say) offloading support of some variety is newly added to a chip set, whoever is adding that support would be testing it at the full speed of the device. If the developers aren't verifying the things they're adding work (somehow), there's something wrong. :(
