bq. I think if only power users can read our logs that's kind of a bad thing?
Can != Do.
Honestly I don't think there's much _value_ in reading our logs unless you're a
power user, and diagnosing a bug/problem with your cluster. It's mostly a list
of flushing/compacting messages (plus peer connect/disconnect, that kind of
thing). We don't not log things because we think users don't want to see; we
don't log because we're too lazy to think about better log messages, AFAICT. We
should just improve our INFO logging IMO, but certainly not ideologically
opposed to this if everyone's bullish.
