I do have INFO too
# Logging
SyslogFacility AUTH
LogLevel INFO

I think I figured out the difference...

Check out what you have for options (I believe these are default values
on debian systems)

ChallengeResponseAuthentication no
PasswordAuthentication yes

in such configuration it behaves how I reported - so if there is illegal
user trying to login - there will be a second line immediately
following... if you use ChallengeResponseAuthentication then if the
attacker doesn't really enter a password (may be just using recent
vulnerability to decide if it is an existing account) - then there is no
2nd line reported...
