No, you aren't crazy. Or if you are, these regression tests aren't the 
proof of your state of mind:-)

The diff isn't necessarily run against the previous test. Rather, it is run 
against some relatively stable past test that we would like to use for 
comparison. We have been using the RC_1_29_0 branch point as the 
comparison.

This is all experimental.  Once we get 1.29.0 out the door will be a good 
time to discuss where test reporting should go in the future.
