They don't, see all the failed build logs I attached:

I'm very sorry to sound demotivating. I meant that it's easier to
disable the tests than to discuss about severity.

But if you prefer to discuss about interpretation of release policy,
I will have no other option than asking the release managers about the
meaning of "must autobuild".

Thanks.
