If I had dozens or hundreds of servers that would make a huge difference, but for under a dozen I think the cost of setting that all up isn't worth the added benefit. Plus if the log aggregation goes down (which I've seen happen with some really hairy issues) you're back to grepping files so it's good to know how.

Totally. I'm talking more from the enterprise perspective. Even apart from that I'm not sure if the cost is worth it at that scale. Even using foss solutions the dev hours setting it up might not be worth it.
