Description:
------------
The description of log_errors is:
log_errors boolean
Tells whether script error messages should be logged to the server's error log or
error_log. This option is thus server-specific.
Note:
You're strongly advised to use error logging in place of error displaying on production
web sites.
As discussed in #66567, error_log is the directive allowing to choose how to log. log_errors is just
a boolean determining whether PHP should log errors or not.
The first sentence is not exactly wrong, but unclear. The following sentence ("This option is
thus server-specific.") belongs to error_log's description, not here.
I suggest replacing the whole English paragraph with just:
Tells whether script error messages should be logged.
The only problem with that is it doesn't refer to error_log, about which the reader will
naturally want to learn next.
