App segfaulting before having chance to log is mostly a thing in the past, unless you are writing c++. Any other language will instead have a top level exception handler. If you were to take hard crashes into account, you would even have to log before each operation instead of after, basically reverting to printf-debugging. |

Yes, that's exactly what I see done and do for large enough operations (substeps of those operations only log when they're done).

That's what logging is, fundamentally. printf debugging, but with your own printf that has a few more knobs.
