Also... Sentry is logging. It's a very fancy logger that can capture all sorts of data about the exception and what was happening - but at its core, it's still a essentially a logger.

I was thinking the same thing once they got to that point! Our "logger" is literally a library from DataDog, but Sentry has similar (we actually migrate from Sentry to DataDog at my job) and there's tons of other services now that do similar with "loggers" as well. There is good advice here about questioning when to log but Sentry and its peers are loggers.
