I think it's a good idea to get wider expose in "seen", "next" etc. for
topics where the bottleneck is lack of feedback due to lack of wider
exposure.

But in this case I've pointed out both direction & UX issues to you that
you haven't addressed. Both what I sent a reminder of yesterday in [1],
and more relevant to what you're discussing here a reply [2] where I
looked & tested your new output v.s. the old, and found that on test
failures it:

 * Replaced summary output with a much more verbose version.

 * Turned the GitHub UI from usable (but sometimes hard to find the needle in
   the haystack) to *extremely slow*. Seemingly because the browser was asked to
   make sense of~30k lines of output, with some of it hidden dynamically by JavaScript.
