If you provide candidates a live debugger, I'd say this tests debugging skills (which I think is important to test.) I'm not sure what this tests if it was on

  You're right, and this wouldn't test debugging skills to that extent. But even with a live debugger you need an appropriate problem. In terms of whiteboard/paper questions, the fact this touches on the mindset/approach to debugging makes it far better than a lot of other whiteboard/paper questions I've seen.
