It's not enough for that, but that bar is too high. Unless the logs are very small, you should not be keeping years of them. I still say 20MB is enough for a desktop.

Depends on the desktop. Mine does quite a lot of stuff. /var/log is 8.3Gb and the journal is probably a monster.

Your use case is probably different to mine - I'm a security officer for my firm.
