I understand neither way, cause I’m staring at the extensive stdout/log.txt instead. Why pause, watch, evaluate or search for branches with conditionals if you can just see it all at once, search, go back and forth and distill by grepping. Using a debugger feels like walking through a maze over and over instead of just looking from above. (And not using anything is imo just a waste of time and your employers money, if you have one.)
