As a Intellij-user I am more than a little confused. What are features missing from Java's debugging story?

I have mostly heard these complaints from people who haven't used a java ide and/or do not know that jvms allow waiting for a debugger before starting execution (helps with all sorts of spring or whatever errors and boilerplate).

That said, there is a shitload of "enterprise" fuckery in Java, but those Devs would have made a mess of any codebase anyway.

Yeah this comment is wild to me. Java’s debugging is so good I can debug a remote server from my local machine.

Something I've had to do a handful of times against production systems when we absolutely couldn't reproduce an issue locally. Such a great debug ecosystem.
