I’d have to see an example to understand the benefit.  As it is right now you 
have to configure a logger for each thing you want to manage at its own logging 
level. If you were going to “re-write” the logging level how would you do that 
without having to configure each logger with the new level?  The only 
difference I can see is that the level in the output would now be different 
than what is specified in the code.
