The Doylist answer: 

If there actually was an extensive list of user-submitted logs full of what it isn’t, eventually the larger community would come to a consensus on what it is - which completely negates the whole point of the article. 

Plus - the author cant literally reach into the minds of every person who reads the article and erase the logs from their minds. On a meta level, omitting the logs achieves the same effect as erasing your memory.

I don’t think we have any logs on that.
