I am all for improving BAT, dropping tests is not acceptable imo.
Replacing them with equivalent-or-better that run quickly should be the
goal. Otherwise, you get into the same situation with the nightly runs
(that already exclude gem_concurrent_blit despite it being one of the
few tools that catch basic errors in GEM).
