Maybe people what to archive syslog for a year and the others only for a
week or so.
Also I find it comfortable to e.g. do a "tail -f /var/log/syslog" and get
everything. (ok, have to append auth.log)

This is arguable. I don't have a real optinion on it as I use logcheck
to remove the unnecessary messages from syslog and read the rest.
Maybe this is really clutter.
Would be interestingly to know how other distributions and other Unices do.
