After having the risks explained to them and having received our professional recommendation that they add application-specific logging that had no means of accidentally logging PII, one of our customers (a major bank) still insisted that we implement full HTTP body logging in a proxy.

Nobody is going to lose their job over this because the practical consequences are that you have to send out an "our bad" email and offer a credit protection voucher that most customers won't actually use. There are no costs.

You’re both correct: someone “should” lose their job, but nobody will.

Not that that someone is necessarily the person who actually turned on this logging, it could be their supervisor who let it go live, or QA or… wherever the buck stops.
