I believe that the reporting level is only used for errors displayed in
the browser window, not to the ones that are logged.

If you're having your error logs fill up with errors, this isn't an
issue with PHP but the coder! It is obviously more than a few errors,
unless your website has millions of visitors each day triggering the
same error, but which is more likely a scenario?!

I'd advise fixing those errors, even the warnings, as warnings are often
a prelude to a logic problem somewhere in the code.
