The problem is just that if the code is not tested in its
current configuration it will most likely not work (unless you're a perfect
coder, but most of us are not). And merging code that doesn't work doesn't
make sense.
The need for a full retest after the changes inspired by review
feedback is somewhat annoying -- I agree -- but there's really
no way around it that I know.
BTW I'm not saying that LTP is the perfect user test (it's definitely
not), but it's a relatively useful basic sanity check and you
should pass something like this at least. Other real user testing would
be still needed too of course then.
