It might be possible to ratelimit only the daemon that is logging too much, and let others continue logging without delay. In any case, without more details about what exactly will be done it's hard to say whether a good idea is being proposed. Running out of space on /var is pretty bad outcome too, so avoiding that one way or other seems worthwhile.
