Rich logging is trading usability for the "nice look". We don't want that as a default experience.

Description of the changes
Rich tracebacks trade usability for the "nice look". We don't want that as a default experience. It's been a constant support nightmare due to how much it inflates the text length of tracebacks, doesn't react well to terminal resizing, and, empirically, probably also slows down console logging noticeably...
I feel like this has been a known "ah, yes, this does kinda suck and we'd like to change it at some point" for a while.
Have the changes in this PR been tested?
