A Pipe is two channels, one for each end. A typical usage will be for one thread to write to the sink, and another to read from the source. In the test you are only using one end, ignoring the other, so probably unusual. So while it would be possible to retrofit Pipe to implement AutoCloseable, it probably wouldn't fit many usages.
