    It seems a lot of thought was put into the design of LogTape. I may integrate my logging tool with LogTape. My tool needs the callsite, so I don't think I can just write a LogTape sink; I think it would also have to wrap/extend Lo

    It can also be considered rude to use the more formal style of speech when the social hierarchy dictates the informal style should be used. The book Using Korean[1] gives a detailed explanation of how formal speech indicates social distance
