I don't feel like coming back so early is a good idea.  It might be wishful thinking that he'll be running up front as I can't see him pushing the bike to the limit when he's not healed.  I think he can run top 10 in his sleep, but it would be a miracle if he made a podium.

He's over 100 points behind Lorenzo.
Why on earth would he come back early?

Brivio: Vale had a 10-lap run. Looks like normal testing already! Now starting again for few more laps. Leg seems good so far

Finished test.. 10 + 14 laps. Vale made a good job. Still some pain and now he knows more how to get better... Lap time was not so bad too!

Update 2: Rossi says, "I had some pain in the ankle, the knee and the shoulder, but above all I lacked strength in the shoulder and a bit of movement in the ankle. I would really like to come back at Sachsenring, but it is still too early to say. We still have twelve days and we must wait and see how much we can improve my condition in the next few days. The Superbike today was good and great fun to ride! I really would like to ride at Sachsenring, but we must wait another week before making a decision."
It's thought that, should this test go well, Rossi could return as early as Sachsenring on 18 July. Even if he is fit enough to ride, the value of such an early return could be limited. He might be fit enough to ride, but will he be fit enough to win? There's also concern over the impact a further injury could have.
