> If I have to get up to ask you a question, I might not ask it. I might spend then next 1/2 hour trying to read code. Maybe I'll figure it out but you could have just told me in 15 seconds. That's the idea here. The opposing idea is that in the long-term picture, choosing to spend more time now in order to figure it out yourself leads to developing the very skills that will let you avoid needing help in the future. Much like coding every day makes you a better coder, debugging things yourself makes you a better debugger.
