Binary package hint: lsb-base

The functions in /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh override all the corresponding functions in /lib/lsb/init-functions.
In particular it override log_progress_msg with the following code:
===========
...
 log_progress_msg () {
    :
}
...
===========

There is really little surprise in the fact no output is given.
Is this behavior intended?
If so: why?
fixing this is rather trivial, bu I would like to understand the "why" before touching anything

If that's relevant:
===========
