that may all be true

but the above configuration leads to supress possible interesting
messages from daemons which not flood the log and is only needed
because some components are more verbose than needed for normal
operations instead get only verbose in a debug-level

in normal operations you only need two events logged in case of
a cronjob a) started and b) finished which does crond anyways
