any advantage of specifically loading 'N/log' module if netsuite already does that by default?

While it's true that NetSuite provides an in-scope

log

variable by default, there are certain advantages to specifically loading the 'N/log' module. 1. Flexibility: The 'N/log' module can be used both server-side and client-side. This provides flexibility in terms of where you can log and debug your code. 2. Performance: It's mentioned that NetSuite intentionally logs to the browser console by default for SuiteScript 2.0 for performance reasons. However, the 'N/log' module can also log server-side if needed, providing a balance between performance and functionality. 3. Avoiding Conflicts: While conflicts are unlikely to occur server-side, specifically loading the 'N/log' module can help avoid any potential conflicts with other scripts or modules. 4. Code Organization: The purpose of modules is to not load them unless needed. This can help keep your code clean and organized, and can also potentially improve performance by not loading unnecessary code. Remember, it's always a good practice to only load the modules that you need for your specific use case.
