I mean, this specific case can be fixed, but for the future it would be more robust if this error case can't happen at all.

I had a look at sqm_logger():
sqm_logger() {
    logger -t SQM -s ${1}
}

and hope that
sqm_logger() {
    logger -t SQM -s "${1}”
}

Fixes the issue for me and is more concise than trying to introduce real error handling in sqm_logger. Does this also work for you?
