Splitoff of #369.

I think it would be valuable to have the ability to log information
such as spin bit policy (e.g. enabled, disabled due to random chance,
disabled administratively), independent of the actual spin_bit_updated
event).

@LPardue replied:

Personally I'm not interested in spending effort on that but if others want to propose text that fine.

I agree with @LPardue here that this is not something we should standardize here, though I'm also not 100% opposed to it if people contribute text.

Personally, I feel this should better be punted to if/when something like the Loss Bits proposal (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mdt-quic-explicit-measurements/00/) is adopted/RFC'd, so it can be tackled in 1 go.

Would you be willing to contribute text @hlandau? Otherwise, we will close this with no action.

I think this can be closed for now. The amount of text that would be needed for it isn't congruent with the limited value I suspect. Can be revisited for draft-mdt-quic-explicit-measurements.
