why would shallow-rendering get more coverage and be easier to write.

However I'd say a series of shallow-rendering tests, for each component in your tree, would get you more coverage and be easier to write.

Because there’s less to cover for each component at once that way - certainly yes, you’d want shallow rendering tests for every component in your tree.
