Agreed, it's the simplest way to test and validate specific assumptions. Debuggers are useful tools, but it takes you just as long but usually longer to get to the same answer: is what I think is happening here actually happening here?

At least debuggers give you new powers, the posted above makes you install a library, import it all just so you can have slightly cleaner print statements... I'm not gonna go out of my way to import something and have to clean it up after just so my printed statement is better formatted. And if I needed the more powerful debugging, I'd use a debugger not this library.
