Why Does Log.txt Show .... Debug]. Other than a catestrophic error, I normally see one of three main categories in the Log File. They are, Information, Debug, & Warning.

I'm confused as to why you choose the word Debug? Information requires no action on the user. Warning "demands" action by the user or data can be lost if you immediatly sync in the opposite direction. The terminiology "Debug" makes no sense.

It appears Debug is used when you have an exact match or sync. You might see something like the two below:
Debug] Matching contact 25 of 328 by id: lName, fName
Debug] Syncing contact 123 of 328: lName, fName

It also appears in conjuction with "Information" as shown below:
[7/7/2020 9:01:11 PM | Debug] Syncing contact 109 of 328: lName, fName
[7/7/2020 9:01:11 PM | Information] Updated Outlook contact from Google: "lName, fName".

There needs to be a better explaination of this terminology.

      Don't you think there should be a log file that the user can make better since of?

      This is typical terminology to mark in log files information needed later by developmet team in order to investigate errors.
