It's going to be quite rare.. and I do like that we have better visual warning to users that something went wrong instead of a wall of colorless text.

Hi, I have a blue screen

OK, what's the error?

Dunno, it's just blue

Even with a QR code, it would be better to be able to take a picture of the logs to see what happened all the way until the kernel panic.

having a color/logo doesn't exclude a succint and useful error message

The Windows error screen is almost never useful. Maybe Linux could aspire to that standard!
