No, but in that case our tests are already "standardized" (they are just
test_* functions with assertions). But if the suggestion is to use the
unittest or unittest2 module with the class style of testing I am strongly
opposed.

I.e. single-click "run all tests" certainly is nice, but SymPy tests need

Sure but needing to care about those options is rare. The only flag you
generally need to care about for testing is -k, which lets you run an exact
test function, which can be faster.
