I agree with you. And I already find the work done for generating this
test suite very impressive :-)

Well actually this animation on the marker pointed out a bug in our
player that none of the test for the "use" showed. 

None of the official test specific for the "use" tests the following
case:
- animation of an attribute in a use, which is itself included in
another part of the document with another use. I thinks (but I must
check again that you have such test on your web page).
