This is completely true. Quality e2e tests that have good setup and cleanup and aren't flaky take focused dev work. I find myself regularly using the locator finder tool in playwright UI/debugger but I've never found any real value in using the test generator.
I could see it being valuable in a really small subset of exceedingly simple UI, probably personal-project level but even those tend to grow too complex for this.
