Description

The functions local() and local_resource() are very closely related, but have some inconsistencies (see #3659)
Adding to these is that local() has an option quiet=Bool to squelch command output in the logs.

However, local_resource() has no such option at all.

This inconsistency is unexpected and, at times, frustrating.

Research direction

Locate the definitions and tests for local() and local_resource(), then compare how local() handles its quiet=Bool option. Done means local_resource() supports equivalent quiet behavior and the relevant tests cover the new option and its effect on command output.
