What value does the stress test provide in terms of validating the compatibility of Ubuntu with the hardware? In other words, what kind of bug can this uncover in the distro?

In the distro? Unknown.

This test has been developed as part of our like-for-like coverage effort.

The stress test takes 10 minutes to run, which is a lot of time just for the sake of "like-for-like" coverage. Since the test already exists as a package, people can readily run them if necessary but I would not recommend doing this as part of Checkbox.
