Why not spend your time making E2E tests faster and write a thin http client for testing that you can run as part of your testing framework?

I'm not the parent poster. Your question assumes that Postman / curl / anything are used to test something. I generally use those kind of tools to explore an API and I write tests later if I use it or never if the team decides to use something else. After all a project defines very few APIs but consumes a lot of them from external entities, at least in the projects I'm working on.
