Description

Currently, logging is pretty ad-hoc: different modules use logging levels pretty arbitrarily, and there is important information in trace levels and unimportant info in log. We should take a pass on the code base and figure out what information we usually end up wanting, what information we want for debugging purposes, and what we never even look at.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review current logging patterns across modules, identify inconsistencies in log levels (trace vs info etc.), propose a consistent logging strategy, and implement changes.
