Yes, please leave it alone. It seems to me like a non-problem. Personally I never use test mode although I have accidentally activated it since it is a hold function of the mode button. I could not imagine operating a radio without some sort of external metering in the antenna feed line. Currently I have an analog cross needle SWR meter in the line and I hardly ever transmit without confirming visually that I am emitting RF power and that SWR looks normal. There's gotta be more important issues for Elecraft to pay attention to.
