Long-term documentation is not the reason logs are useful. Asynchronous communication is the reason logs are useful.
That is, you can ping people who are offline, or with a flaky network connection (e.g. mobile, where you can't keep a consistent TCP stream open), and they can still see your message and a bit of context when they get back.
