I know that what you say sounds fine - completely, there is faster feedback on unit tests - no doubt! As said, am not against them - when people focus on test coverage - it is a false dawn, unattainable.

Calculations and logic are perfect reasons for adding unit tests, but that most "proof is in the pudding". For example, deploying to a test environment with sufficient test coverage will reveal more than esoteric unit tests.

Also agree on your point re sea of green and no trust :)
