With DTrace you not only don't have to restart processes, but you don't have to recompile them. ETW is glorified logging. Logging is useful, but dynamic tracing is transformatively different. I can't recompile the Windows kernel to add missing ETW probes, but I can use DTrace to probe it just fine.
