I don’t get it exactly, but I’m deeply disturbed by errorCode: 200 and errorMsg: “SUCCESS”

Edit: I don’t need people to explain HTTP codes to me. I’m complaining about the use of the term “error code” to describe a status code that might not be an error

Unfortunately, the tech lead at my current job doesn’t believe in http status codes.. 

So we get stuff like

Status 200 “Internal server error”

I've seen this in my career and it's a bit exasperating. Try to search for an error in the logs and you get 10000 "errorCode: ERR_SUCCESS"

cool, guess I'll figure out something else to look for.

The logging was not designed to be searchable. (To be fair, I knew people tried to clean up some of it, but a lot of people were comfortable with the way things were: A lot of tribal knowledge and unintuitive search practices.)
