Sure, but I care about that once in a great while.

Very likely because your use-cases are trivial.

No. Rather, I don't change my build flags every build, and therefore 

don't need to verify them constantly. VERBOSE is only needed when the 

buildsystem is first created or when it is changed. (Besides that it is 

only needed in special circumstances or when you don't trust the build 

system.)

Of course, I like my percentage progress (a LOT, in big projects) also.

I am well aware that some people prefer watching progress bars, instead
of watching bugs ... the rationale for doing so has always escaped me.

That's... uncalled for. And unwarranted.
