It seems like scrolling up wouldn't be that big of a problem compared to not actually being able to access the seed, and therefore have it be very difficult to fix flailing tests, especially with grep/in terminal searching.
There's also other configuration style bugs that can cause the test suite to terminate early and not show the seed, which is the type of thing my team is running into now. Do you think a formatting option for where to print the seed would add needless clutter?
