I think we need to understand what causes the failure, even if we
decide that we do not want to/can make the test pass. 3 timelevel
initialization (or Carpet's methods to populate past timelevels using
the evolution loop) would seem required for correct convergence in time.

We claim that 3-timelevel initialization is possible, so if we see
that it does not work, we should understand why and either fix it or
abort a run that tries to use it. Silently producing incorrect results
seem to me to be very dangerous.

Also until we understand that actual mechanism behind the failure,
this might affect other initialization methods as well. Our tests
might just not catch it.

Yours,
Roland
