Most of those can be ignored.

Let's say that you get into a car and you run a preliminary systems check.
You test if the car has Pop Up Headlights.
This car, however, has standard headlights, not popup, so it fails the popup test.
You Log The Error. Next, you check the foghorn. This car, however, has the standard automotive horn and no foghorn.

You log the failure of the foghorn.

In computers, they must check not your hardware, but all compatible hardware, present or not, then assign a module to that which does respond.
An error like AE Already Exists means that the advanced profile already exists and does not need to be created.
