Verbose mode is not enabled when running Macro by default, but can be toggled dynamically as needed, e.g. for debugging a user issue, possibly even while it happens.
For some reason Meson was introduced with this option off by default (d86c29b0e518f765e7570573c76bc033fbd17f6d), and we later forwarded to Autoconf with no other rationale than getting in line with Meson (397e31879bf79861a1a21ec4e2a75017e243d34b).

I was surprised to see this disabled by default, and so was @muktupavels, see short discussion on https://github.com/mate-desktop/marco/pull/748#issuecomment-1404918784.
If this is deliberate, you can close this, and possibly explain why it is better to have this disabled by default?
