Why is this debug level? Maybe we don't want an error if the property is
absent, but if it really can't be parsed, why not print out a proper
error?

Same here. Seems like we should be verbose when this contains an invalid
value. DT checkers should catch these already, so if the invalid value
makes it here, maybe we should sound the alarm.
