I don't have any opinion on that.  The `elisp-benchmark.el` code itself
is very small/trivial, so rewriting it should be quite easy.

[ Then again, I can't think of any reason why any of it would take "much
  time", whether modifying `elisp-benchmarks.el`, or extending ERT, or
  writing it all from scratch.  So I'm probably missing something.  ]
