Or, to put it another way, it's Microsoft saying, "Hey, you probably want local event tracing in your application, so we enabled it by default." Been a while since I've done Windows dev (and I'll install VS Beta to check this out), but it might be as simple as the default project skeleton including an instrumentation manifest whose presence adds EWT tracing to the build chain. It's basically Windows' syslog equivalent, so unless Win10 is sending back all EWT eventing as a matter of course -- which, Win10 being a privacy carwreck, it might well be! -- I'm not too alarmed.
