There definitely should be more than that. Note however that most of
these things are not classified as errors, so they are logged at LOG
level. It may be that you're filtering so you're not showing LOG level
information, or perhaps your syslogd is configured to write them to a
different file.

AFAICS, the only code-path that does not log *why* it rejected the
authentication is the case when the client refuses to send a password.
