Just stopping by to let you know I appreciate the feedback you gave!

While I like to keep Ratlog.js as simple as possible to use for the simple use case, I realize the value of Ratlog's logging semantics separate from its output format.
I extended the API in a way which allows using those semantics independent from the output format and which should make it easy to use it on top of other logging frameworks, libraries and services:

const log = ratlog.logger(log => {
  process.stdout.write(JSON.stringify(log) + '\n')
})

log('log')

const debug = log.tag('debug')

debug('debugging only')
