Discord is a black hole for information
Nothing stopping any client from having logs. mirc and xchat have had them for decades. Yes, they are local but do exist and serve their purpose

Sure. But when you first join there is no history which means that anyone new to the channel would ask the same questions because there was nothing they could search.

Exactly, and it won't search for stuff that was written when your client, or the bot, wasn't running.
Sure, you could set up bouncers and whatnot. But it's a barrier that Discord doesn't have.
