Summary
There are some benefits, like faster tests and thus saving CI time, but the main reason for me is¹:

Sometimes you need to adjust imports for mocking, and sometimes other random stuff break.
Instead of wasting valuable developer lifetime we can use vitest which works perfectly with ESM.
Running locally:
