Many times the crash is not in the test code itself, but is just something like memory corruption, so it goes from one test to another as the tests we skip/run changes. If we skip them, then the list of tests we skip just keeps growing indefinitely.

Sure. My point is more that skipping tests that are not themselves the direct cause of the crash would just mean an ever growing list of skipped tests.
