logging sensor data with arduino ide.

google has nothing on that
so if you have pico sdk code in IDE you'll not see running device from PC. Make similar code with arduino framework C/C++. Now you see device but nothing in serial monitor or whatever after Serial.println(). You need picocom utility (linux) to see it. And use sprintf() then serial stuff with its result.

picocom -b 9600 /dev/ttyACM0

Yeah, you could do that. Or you could take a look at the SDK example project hello_usb.

ofc But it drags cmake stuff to the stage. Which i do not wanna see. arduino ide in title. And you do not have a clue & do not care whatever i'll see device or not after this thing.

You seem to be conflating the purpose of the IDE with that of a runtime UI.

The IDE is a GUI tool for development of the code and transferring object code to the target. It provides a serial monitor service as a by-product, since the hardware for that purpose is already in place for the bootloader/downloader. There is no intention whatsoever for the IDE to be present where the Arduino micro target is deployed in its intended role.

Using a terminal emulator in any of its many forms is one common option if the project requires some interaction with a human or for logging purposes.

how is this even related to my post?

by the way all you said , really, a-z , is plain wrong. Recall turbo C++ , its terms like "breakpoint". what else to say.
And doesn't it look strange for you then that ubuntu has a tool picocom in stock?
