Better question:
Why have any level's implemented?
Probably because it's useful to have sensible default implementations.
"TRACE" or "FINE" is one that many seem to agree is sensible and required.
I think the idea is, no matter how many or few default levels there are,
the defaults should cover the range of the "logging space" completely.
FATAL pretty much covers it on one end of the spectrum.
On the other end we need a logging level whose messages would be so
verbose and so often called that we would almost never need a finer level.
DEBUG is too general purpose for that.
