> A lot of times, these can be solved with a debugger and a few WTFs or with a week of trying to understand every line of code, it's states and the transition between those states.

In my experience the vast majority of those cases can be solved with quick search of the Github issue tracker to find someone else who has already debugged the issue, followed by an upgrade of the library to a newer version that's already been released to fix the issue, or if you're unlucky manually applying a patch.

Of course, that person's probably used a debugger to solve the issue. And sometimes you need to be that person. But IMO if you're using libraries that regular require you to pull out a debugger, then maybe you ought to be using better libraries.
