Oh yes, I totally agree. Some things that I used to write, I would find insane now.
But it doesn't make the problem any less real. At my current job, I think our tests are really bad because they mostly don't test what really matters (also due to too many things being spread out across several services) and instead are coupled excessively to implementation details. That makes development slow and also means I can never be sure that my changes don't break something important.
