I'm ambivalent on affecting the design because I don't know what the
consequence is, and I'm naturally contrary even with myself; HOWEVER
the way I have been working is image focused first, and test focused
second. That is, the image is the primary and static variable, and
then I go through various tests. If I'm regression testing, I'd do the
reverse where the test is what gets pinned, and I vary the image.
Being a bug magnet, I end up in way more regression tests than I want.
I'd say time wise I probably spend the same amount of time image
(version) pinned vs test pinned.

I think an Aeromax 2000 might be more useful than my little anecdote though.
