The failure mode to defend against is "someone creates a //new// .compile.pass.cpp test (maybe brain fart, or maybe because they think that's just the naming convention), without adding such a comment; and then adds runtime assertions to it."  But suppose we have //no// .compile.pass.cpp tests checked in, so that nobody ever creates a new one by accident (because there's no old ones to copy); then that failure mode goes away forever. Also, any need to explain the difference to newbies also goes away. I think that getting into that world would be worth //some// (but not an //arbitrarily// large) buildbot slowdown.

It might be interesting for someone to measure the slowdown from globally changing all .compile.pass.cpp tests into .pass.cpp tests.
