Because this can be done with the standard system logrotate, or even by
asterisk (if you trust it to that). Decently-packaged Asterisk comes
with log rotation configuration.

Indeed the output of the CLI should not be simply logged. Asterisk has a
good enough logging facility that need not be replicated. There is no
need to start asterisk vebosely by default and spend useless CPU time on
useless messages. Use verbose messages when trying to debug a problem.
Let errors stand out when they come.
