(Hi Joe, nice to put a face to the name at last!)
I would say: provided that the object under test delivers the
described benefit in the given context then I would think it's
appropriate. The key is having the right conversations with the right
people, to ensure that the thing being delivered is in fact desired
and beneficial. Describing the benefit that the code delivers and the
contexts on which delivery depends would make it clear to me.
"Converting to BDD syntax" smells to me like cargo-cult BDD. You can
put as many coconut shells on your ears as you like. If no one is
talking it won't make any difference.
Cheers,
Liz.
