Don't let me put you down, but writing a logging advisory blog post when you don't know the difference between a log and a metric seems like a peculiar thing to do.

But I'm not shaming lack of knowledge, we all had to learn somehow.

IMO the reasonable compromise if write the post but make your experience level clear and make it clear you're effectively asking for advice.

Very few people do that though.
