I have no objection to report hardware errors in system logs too. So

So, use the standard interface for the tool: syslog.
Although it may be possible to extract some information from syslog and
parse it in a fault tolerant way, we can only use that human oriented
interface for a tool? That sounds like hack.
No, that sounds like the *NIX programming philosophy.
You may have already noticed that most *NIX tools store
and manage data in _text_ form. That makes it easy to
understand, easy to parse/process, and generally better
in almost every respect.
Other platforms (GNOME, MS-Windows) prefer a binary format
that requires special tools to view/access. Ugh.
