This behavior appears to have changed with the 3.9.0 release. I'll continue investigating. cc @dumbbell

Aha, I found this code which demonstrates how to ensure the default main log file is used, just set a level for it:

loopback_users = none
log.console = true
log.file.level = info

I must be the only person to have noticed this since 3.9.x 😄

Closing since nobody else noticed 😆
