It's one of those things where 'just a puts/printf/console.log/prtln' always seems easier.

But all those tiny times add up, over years, decades. And eclipse the time of that afternoon+ spent on learning & configging debuggers in months already.

Don't be me, that senior dev who'd been promising himself for decades to really get down to learning and setting up gdbg or equivalent. And then, once invested, keeps thinking: "I should've done this years ago".
