not starting is a pretty good way to get your attention?
Log more - if read those... How about the metrics change we did in 1.7.0..?

I think not start is one of the fews ways of doing this. The major downside of this is pushing new config and having coredns auto-reload. It will refuse to use the new config \(and keep running\). Until you restart it, then it will Fatalf and make you write a post mortem
