Note that "handlers" cannot be disabled. This applies only to loggers.
Also, the following code shows that disabling the logger does indeed prevents
all logs in emitted by that logger from appearing:
```
import logging
parent_handler = logging.StreamHandler()
child_handler = logging.StreamHandler()
parent_logger = logging.getLogger('parent')
child_logger = logging.getLogger('parent.child')
parent_logger.addHandler(parent_handler)
child_logger.addHandler(child_handler)
child_logger.disabled = True
child_logger.error("wops")
```
Trying to guess what happened, it might be that there was a child of the
disabled logged and you saw the log trace expecting it was the child, example:
```
import logging
parent_handler = logging.StreamHandler()
child_handler = logging.StreamHandler()
parent_logger = logging.getLogger('parent')
child_logger = logging.getLogger('parent.child')
grandchild_logger = logging.getLogger('parent.child.grandchild')
parent_logger.addHandler(parent_handler)
child_logger.addHandler(child_handler)
child_logger.disabled = True
grandchild_logger.error("wops")
```
Note that disable does not affect how handlers across loggers are called. It
only disables the logger and therefore prevents from emitting logs that are
emitted directly through the disabled logger.
Might that be the case? Are you OK with closing this issue if so?
