I think they don't cater to the same crowd. I see parameterized tests as
primarily used by people who like adding formal complexity to their
tests in the name of architectural elegance (decorators, non-intuitive
constructs and other additional boilerplate). Subtests are meant to not
get in the way. IMHO, this makes them more suitable for stdlib
inclusion, while the testing-in-python people can still rely on their
additional frameworks.

Also, subtests would be immediately and trivially usable in our own test
suite.
