  If nothing writes to it, then it's to be expected, yes. As long as
everything works, s6-svscan and s6-supervise don't print anything.
And depending on the services you have, all your daemons may have a
dedicated logger, so their logs are caught. This is a normal and
desirable setup: the catch-all logger should only catch what cannot
be caught otherwise. It should not be the "normal" way to get logs,
because those logs are stored in a tmpfs, i.e. an expensive and fragile
place.
