we can experience the same problem with RMW's, which are both read and

model/main: disable most printing by default, add verbosity
Adds a '-v' parameter for printing verbose info on a non-DEBUG build.
This effectively creates 3 classes of runs:
- Default build, no -v: only prints info when discovering a buggy
execution
- Default build, -v: prints more verbose information, on all feasible
executions (buggy or non-buggy)
- Debug build: Built with 'make debug'. Most verbose; prints everything
for every execution, including infeasible executions. Also prints
DEBUG() prints (as usual).
