For my case, I agree with Tom.  For example, in my recent debugging
session, I was debugging a recursive function ... one which calls
itself, up to 6 levels deep.  For that function, I want to turn context
off because there's so much it becomes unreadable, and instead I put a
nesting counter in the INFO.

I don't want to turn of context for other functions universally -- even
in the same ETL session -- because I want to know what called them,
since some of them can be called on multiple paths.
