No, having a special way to tail your special log file isn't a feature, tail is a general utility used system wide for this for decades; breaking this is idiotic no matter what you grew up with.
I'm happy we have special-purpose tools for dealing with logfiles. I don't want to craft one-liners for "give me logs around timestamp" or "give me logs about my service's first start after the boot" every other day.
I do. I specifically want that as a more valuable and powerful feature. Undifferentiated, open-ended, general purpose, sharp tools are infinitely more useful.
