I think adding a new diagnostic flag named `EnhanceErrorWarningLogging` in addition to `PrintMiscellaneous`and `Verbose` unnecessarily convolutes things and the name of the new option is not really obvious. I would rather add a flag like `TracePerfMemory` and replace usage of `(PrintMiscellaneous && Verbose)` with the new flag or change `PrintMiscellaneous` and `Verbose` to diagnostic flags such that they are available in product VMs.
