  Isn't that just letting someone else write your helpers.php?

    I agree. Also, 8. (no helper functions) contradicts 1. (do the simplest thing).

    No, it's moving debugging into a discrete, well-understood debugging package (Xdebug) rather than jumbling it together with a bunch of unrelated stuff in a big grab bag labeled "Miscellaneous".
