Normally I describe bad APIs as looking like they were written by a committee of drunken orangutans.
This thing makes the output of a committee of drunken orangutans look like art.
Beautiful.
The API is bad, I get it. But the author also seems a little too aggressive with the "my way is the best way" attitude.
Im not even 100% sure that API is really bad? Some hairness could be easily explained by performance reasons. You don't want logging to take a massive amount of system resources.
