I basically agree. So, just to emphasize - the intention is not to encourage
any bugs saying "don't print this message", but rather mostly bugs about
resolving the issues which cause the message to be printed. 

An exception to my agreement is that console output is seen not just by the
developer, but by QA people, early adopter users, and other developers. For
their sake, it's important that messages be clear enough for them to understand
whether they should be looking into something or not


(And indeed, if you look at the 6 dependent bugs, you'll see that there's no
"just stop printing this" bugs.)
