Not as much wrong as different; i.e., log files slice the universe of
data a different way.

A log file tells everything that happens at a particular element, almost
all of which is irrelevant regarding a particular transaction.

Depends.  If that element is misbehaving -- either through flawed source
code or because of external influences -- the state of a transaction
preserved in a log file from the point of that element is of extreme
interest for analysis.

However, as you note, log files do not help in dynamic tracing
of the transaction across a set of elements.
