Your log isn't all that bad - it did have the really important things. But, for future reference, you can leave out these parameters:
Coolant temp - almost always 180-200, rarely changes much, doesn't provide any information as to whether the tune is good or bad. It's only interesting if you suspect a problem with your cooling system. All you need to do is check it before logging and make sure it's at least 180 or so.
Battery voltage - almost always 13.5-14, rarely changes much, etc, etc. Only interesting if if you suspect a problem with the electrical system. If the start motor sounded normal when you started the car, this parameter is not interesting.
Feedback knock correction - since you have "Knock Sum" the parameter is not needed. It can be interesting if you're fine-tuning timing or investigating specific scenarios where knock happens, but as a general measure of engine health it's much less useful than Knock Sum, which you were logging anyway (Knock Sum tells us a lot).
Primary Wastegate Duty Cycle - interesting if you've got boost control problems, otherwise not very interesting. If you want to know if the car is healthy, manifold pressure is the most important boost-related parameter to log.
You may be wondering, "what's wrong with logging extra parameters?" The problem is that there is very little bandwidth between your ECU and your laptop. The more parameters you log, the fewer rows of data you end up with.
Not scolding, just trying to steer you in the right direction for next time.
