You don't need to understand the logs at the time you gather them for this, you just need to keep them long enough to cover the breach, and to be able to understand them after the fact. Hardly seems like an obvious waste to me, and well worth $500/mo.

And avoid leaking customer information/passwords/etc. through them until then, which is the hard part.

Yep. I've seen WAF in "audit mode" and it's got load of client API keys in there, among other fun things.

Check the box for WAF but adds a new risk.
