I don't quite understand the latter part. Why is this a bad thing?

I always thought that having a single unified "tests"-directory was a
benefit, not a disadvantage. Moving the tests "right next to the source"
does not really solve any of the questions; for instance, where would
system calls go? libc? sys/kern?

This really never happened at full extent. Nor would it be desirable, and
largely for the same reasons.
