In a run that has a preceding unrelated ESMF error (which creates the PET.. ESMF_LogFile), the run will get flooded with state diagnosis checks that take up CPU time and significant disk space

This is because this call

does not have a `dbug_flag > 1` gate like the others, e.g.,

See above

the logfile will be flooded with stuff like this on every core
