Integration test are a compromise. e2e tests may be quite expensive to run (for a web application, you might need to run your backend and a web browser, possibly in a docker container - and the whole thing will also run slower). Efficiency matters a lot. You can have robust testing by combining the two. You can check that the whole thing runs end to end once, and then test all the little features / variations using integration tests.
