There have been several times when I was working on triaging a customer reported bug where I wanted to ask for a HAR file (through customer support), but didn't, because I didn't want them sending me (or the support intermediary) their session cookies. And having the cookies wouldn't have helped me debug it. |

But having that cookie, or any other data from my dev environment, after I manage to recreate the reported bug internally, has often helped me debug problems.
The point here is, debug tools that delete information are less useful. Worst case, they are useless.
Yes, such tools can be problematic. With great power comes great responsability. But I rather have powerful tools with a big 'ol warning sign, than useless tools.
