genuine question, is there any kind of logs that console app has access to that you can't view using unix commands? (i.e. tail -f /var/log/messages)?

Not all log levels are persisted to disk (info and debug, i think?) so yes, there is info that you cannot get from `tail -f`
However, you can get all this information with the `log stream` command.
