Fewer people will test as we grow the list of modules they must first install.
Bundling a copy is tempting, but most CPAN modules use the Perl license.
We're in that hole already[1], but I perceived a consensus to stop digging.
Code used only for testing is less concerning, but I'd still not bundle it.
