Of course, Perl has three well-defined levels of messages, "fatal" as represented by die, "warning" as represented by warn and "log" as represented by print.
As you certainly are aware, Perl also has separate mechanisms of handling these messages and whether Perl issues them at all.
So, please reminiscence back on your claimed vast experience and reevaluate whether you still think the "resulting conundrum ... is non-trivial".
Past experience has shown that even if you say "really(!)" want to know that you won't act upon that knowledge though.
