The test is whether you can successfully identify phishing attempts bu approximating what they look like in the wild. Bypassing the test entirely means there's no data on whether you're susceptible to this, and just because someone knows there's a header and how to bypass something doesn't mean they aren't also the kind of person to be distracted and click on stuff they shouldn't.

This method of test passing wasn't okay when Volkswagen did it, and it's not appropriate for employees at a company that asks them to take the test, for the exact same reason.
