People should educate themselves and stop thinking of files as, whateveer it is that makes them think that logfiles are bad. Do they seriously think a file is like a magical stone being dropped where ever it may be? A self-contained unit, like a bit? Well, they're wrong. Files are streams of bits. Streams of bits can be in transition or stationary. Example, moving bits from here to there, over network or on the harddrive - bits in transition, a collection called a file. A bunch of bits on a hard-drive or in RAM, is still a stream, but not in the process of being copied/moved elsewhere.
