Is there a reason that otelzap doesn't use the passed message as the event name?

Uses a generic 'log' message. But the passed in user msg is available. Is this intentional? And if so why?

Because event names must have low cardinality which can't be guaranteed if we use error messages - see https://uptrace.dev/opentelemetry/span-naming.html#span-names
