The start and stop events of a `LoggerContext` and `Configuration` are pretty rare, but are very important to debug problems such as continuous reconfiguration. That change made the lifecycle events much more noisy, and undesirable for normal operations. I agree they can be useful for debugging. That seems to imply they should have stayed at the debug level. For me, the INFO level should be reserved for mandatory lifecycle information that the user should see under normal circumstances. The DEBUG level should be used for lifecycle information that the user should see while debugging. Now, in order to suppress these extra messages, users are likely to turn off status logging at the INFO level, preventing them from seeing more useful information.
