My reasoning is that I want us to fix issues that crop up. If we bury our logs too much nobody can tell anything is wrong. I understand your concern though. My amendment then would be

1. Make those dashboard sections optional, default off, we can enable them on meta for ourselves.
2. Regardless, add a link to logs on the “Logs” page somewhere, even as a magic tab that just links you there (after Screened URL)
3. If error count is unreasonably high, warn about it, same as we warn about when sidekiq has a huge backlog.
