If you are doing massive log streams with mixed priority/durability, use named queues if you have different priority and retry and durability needs. You keep bringing up edge cases, but they've already been considered and solutions already engineered and available in every major syslog implementation.

I didn't say they those choices aren't viable; I'm strictly talking about architectural decisions. You can solve the problem with different solutions, be they rsyslog or otherwise. That said, I probably wouldn't go with rsyslog as my default choice anymore since the world is moving on to OpenTelemetry.
