Bugs that happen at my desk I do what you said, add the logs I need and then delete them when it is fixed. However often there are things that I can't figure out how to reproduce at my desk and so I need logs that are always running on the off chance a new bug happens that I need to debug.

Yea that's valid. I do keep some kinds of logs around for this. But I'm selective with it and most logs I don't need to retain to manage this risk.
