Actually, it's also the converse.

Sometimes people write stuff like

in random strings which aren't actually docstrings. The naive parser checks for such strings regardless of where they occur. If such a string is not in a docstring, the _test_enough_doctests test will catch it.

But it also validates the doctest framework. I remember fixing some quoting issue in the doctest parser which was caught thanks to this doctest.

I would propose to just remove the test.
