I said this elsewhere, but the point here is what the humans involved are supposed to do with this info. Do I literally get out of bed on an error log or do I grep for them once or twice a month?

You should never get out of bed on an error in the log. Logs are for retrospective analysis, health checks and metrics are for situational awareness, alerts are for waking people up.
