Issues after installing sysdiagnose profile on watch and viewing watch console output

I'm having intermittent issues viewing WatchOS console output. Installing the sysdiagnose profile works some of the time. Here's everything I've tried:

1. Installing sysdiagnose on Apple Watch

2. Installing sysdiagnose on Apple Watch and then restarting the watch

3. Restarting the Apple Watch and then installing sysdiagnose profile

4. Restarting the Apple Watch and then installing sysdiagnose profile and then restarting the watch

5. Removing the current sysdiagnose profile, restarting the watch, installing the sysdiagnose profile

6. Removing the current sysdiagnose profile, restarting the watch, installing the sysdiagnose profile and then restarting the Watch.

I really need to view the watch's console output on my Mac console, and using the sysdiagnose profile only works some of the time.

Why is this so hard to do? And another thing: is installing the sysdiagnose profile really needed for logging? The instructions state that it's for creating a file to send to Apple, but I don't need to do that. I just need console output.

I guess I'll try restarting my iPhone and my Mac next.

Thanks
