[analytics] trackEvent failed
Error message
[analytics] trackEvent failed
What it means
Safety net around trackEventUnsafe inside trackEvent: the public event API wraps its provider fan-out (GA dataLayer push, OpenPanel send) so that a throw from any provider — unlisted event name path, serialization issue, or gtag absence — cannot propagate into feature code. The catch warns with the event name and error; the event is dropped, not queued.

Solutions
- Check the logged eventName against ALLOWED_EVENTS — unlisted names are the usual cause
- Fix the failing provider specifically (GA init vs OpenPanel) using the logged error
- Keep the wrapper: analytics must never break feature flows
