Poor Behavior when env var not present

Even when outputting errors after checking for the presence of the env var, the errors will not be logged to OTel because they are caught by the worker which was not able to connect it's log streams to the OTel module. Improve this experience, probably by attempting to write the exceptions out to the OTel logger, even if it is not configured

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how the worker handles exceptions when the environment variable is absent and how its log stream connects to the OpenTelemetry logger. Done means those exceptions are logged or otherwise surfaced through the intended OpenTelemetry path even when configuration is missing.
