Now, for the issue at hand. A minimum viable configuration (I think) would be to open "/dev/log" (or whatever the native logging socket it for a particular system) and to log *everything* to an equivalent of "/dev/console".

the problem with this is that doing so can prevent an admin from being able to fix the machine.
it's _really_ hard to figure out what's wrong if you have the screen scrolling as fast as it can spewing log entries at you.
