Once again, I'm not saying logging will help fixing a real bug. However,
for bugs we can't reproduce, you often see "I can't reproduce, can you
attach spicec.log? Oh, I see XXX in the logs, did you do YYYY before the
bug occurred?", and then you get a reproducer, or you can explain the
reporter what he did wrong.
