Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:4 psykro]:
 > I tend to agree with that, my only suggested addition would be a)
 updating the document link and b) including one or two examples, which
 would (hopefully) lead developers to read the document.

 The link was already updated to https://wordpress.org/support/article
 /debugging-in-wordpress/ in [32479].

 `WP_DEBUG_LOG` creates a public log file, which would be a privacy
 concern. As mentioned in comment:33:ticket:28551, it could also overflow a
 user's available disk space if accidentally left enabled.

 At a glance, it doesn't look like there are any "safe" examples that won't
 inadvertently slow down the site or introduce other negative effects if
 enabled without fully understanding the consequences, so I tend to think a
 link to the documentation should be enough for now.
