I think its the same as cognitive dissonance but I always find debuggers help when my code appears to be doing something impossible- like I’ll be thinking how could if(true) ever fail then remember oh this whole function isn’t even getting called and I had fixated on the wrong place. Debuggers will sort it out faster than a bunch of print statements.
