Murphy, the bit about how to write something up does happen because some things can take more time and make take the jet out of service for awhile and that many mean cancelled flights, lost money, and pissed off managers. A common one is an overspeed event. Different inspections are required depending on amount of overspeed and duration. Shade the answer a few knots or a few seconds one way, and it makes the difference between and hour inspection and sign off versus a trip to the hangar for half a day or more. There’s also the possibility of some CYA going on. Writing down in the logbook that you killed your electric trim system, let the stick shaker run for the entire flight, but thought nothing of continuing to the scheduled destination might have brought some unwanted attention back on the crew. I know it would here. Feds periodically audit the logbooks for unusual goings on, and you might be amused to know the kind of violations that pilots have inadvertently confessed to with their write-ups. Keep in mind no one had a crystal ball to tell these guys that the plane was going to crash tomorrow. Now they have all the world looking at them. Hindsight is always 20/20 and sometimes 20/10.
