That's literally the same thing. I write a failing test, I fix it. Those are the errors to think about and the green check marks when I don't need to think about them.
It's the opposite. One is motivation from being completionist all-green checkmarks. Where checkmarks are good. I only want to see/think about errors. I don't care if it passed 100 tests or a 1000 tests successfully.
Edit: I get that logically they are the same, but that's true of a half-empty/half-full glass. Psychologically they are different.
