The idea being discussed here is putting a project > quota on the /var/log directory (so pretty write-heavy) /var/log is definitely a "mostly write" directory, but I wouldn't ever classify it as "write heavy". Unless you are trying to perform thousands of concurrent writes and/or log file creation/removal operations every second to /var/log, then putting a project quota on that directory is not going to cause you any sort of noticable problem.
