Levels 1 and 2 are reserved for the *DBI*. That sentence was added with DBI-1.42. Most DBD's were written before that version, and the authors probably never saw it. I started coding my DBD with DBI-1.08 or so. DBI-1.41 still documented it as --8<--- That's the first time we see how debug/trace logging works within a DBI driver.
