so he's not a fan of binary logging but he didn't say why, maybe he'll update his thoughts once he uses the related tools like journalctl to see what benefits it brings.
He probably understands that making it the primary logging method and thus requiring the use of the special tools for the least troubleshooting is a massive architectural mistake which is totally unnecessary and made for only arrogant reasons.
he's not exactly a charmer at times either depends which side of the fence you are sitting at the time. He has brought many a developer into line when they step over the boundary.
Sadly, he's not in a position to do that here, even if he wants to.
perhaps there was nothing to say about it as its not as worrying as people like to troll about.
Or perhaps you reveal yourself as a dbag when you call people who care about an issue trolls.
