      I have an SSD and I thought it would be a good idea to enable "Disable writing log files to the local disk".

      When I did this I noticed that log files are still being logged to /var/log, such as filter.log

      Is this a bug, or am I missing something?

        No need with modern SSDs to disable logging.

        That option disabled all logging except filter.log, I just fixed that.
