SIPB isn't tracking your install. ops already has a bazillion ways of
tracking your install (Kerberos logs and Hesiod queries come to mind).
source-sipb is trying to construct a platform as close to the Athena

be any different from a private Athena workstation in terms of the
privacy considerations of syslog.conf.
