Default Do sim pilots log their time?

To whom it may concern:

Do sim pilots log their simulator time? Is so, why?

Possible answers:

To show simulated currency.
In furtherance of a simulated rating.
To prove to the simulated FAA that simulated flying happened.



I am a real pilot, and not a sim pilot, but the answer is quite obvious.

I can tell you unequivocably that all sim pilots must sim-log their sim-
time.

Sim-logging sim-time enhances simulated flight safety.

The SNTSB (aka sim-NTSB) statistics show that any sim pilot who doesn't
sim-log his sim-time will instantly suffer certain sim-death. Sim-mortality
rates for sim pilots who sim-log their sim-time is substantially lower.
Additionally, a large proportion of sim pilots who do sim-log their sim-
time have sim-accidents when they upgrade from one version of MSFS to
another...

Of course, I won't actually give you a link to a source, because it should
be as common sense to all real pilots, as it is to me.
