I felt this last week as I tried Webpack 4 on a new project. The source maps weren't correct, and instead of debugging my app I had to debug multiple Webpack plugins and work out which one was breaking the source maps. Never did find out, but I fixed my app by debugging it mentally. It sure made me wish for a developer-first language.
