It can be fixed without syntax change with(with some trickery) by making streaming operation return a handle that can be further streamed, and that locks loggersthe logger's mutex in constructor and releases in destructor.

The other problem is that cout is inconvenient for logging, as its formatting is poorly designed to begin with. Checkout fmtCheck out the fmt open source library for better alternatives. It'sIts primary function, format, is included in C++20.
