After which I accidentally went down the rabbit hole of the history of debugging tools on Unix in the 1970s, as I was annoyed by somebody quoting Kernighan's "The most effective debugging tool is still careful thought, coupled with judiciously placed print statements" without mentioning that it's from 1979, which is a bit like quoting someone talking about the limitations of the Blériot monoplane as if you're making some valid point about the Tornado GR4
