SQL Custom Error Log Table Benefits

What is the purpose of a stored procedure Error Log Table?



I am seeing a lot of websites recommend this.
SQL server already has an Error log table in SSMS (Option a).



So why create another error log table, seems like additional coding? (Option b). I can even customize error messages using both options, SELECT @ErrMsg = 'testabcd'. Can someone explain? Thank you,



(a) Error Log Table

(b) Stored Procedure
https://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/53462/sql-server-error-logging-and-reporting-within-a-stored-procedure/



CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[ErrorLogInsert]
AS

INSERT INTO [ErrorLogTable]
(
ErrorNumber
,ErrorDescription
,ErrorProcedure
,ErrorState
,ErrorSeverity
,ErrorLine
,ErrorTime
)
VALUES
(
ERROR_NUMBER()
,ERROR_MESSAGE()
,ERROR_PROCEDURE()
,ERROR_STATE()
,ERROR_SEVERITY()
,ERROR_LINE()
,GETDATE()
);
