Side-effects from previous tests: might depend on how you arrange your tests.
You could just have the same effects when using SQLite inmemory. Some large
tests may need more than one rollback.

I am not saying that we should not try to make a test db independent. But imo
we need to balance the work of doing so (mocking all Context stuff etc.,
running Test::DBIx etc.) against the advantages we hope to achieve. And
although mocking may help focus on the specific test goal, not mocking might
help revealing other issues..
