There is an inherent tradeoff between interaction and reproducibility. I think the whole conversation of debugger vs print debugging is dumb. Just do whatever makes you the most productive. Often times it is immediately obvious which makes more sense.

I agree, both are useful. But debuggers is vastly more useful for this particular case, most of the time. The parent comment that I replied to was trying to say otherwise
