gc allows to get any [non-leaky] object from anywhere. You can even drop into repl over the network.

Debugger can be started on exception if desired e.g., pytest provides `--pdb` arg. Though repl is different--you don't need to interrupt the app itself while you are inspecting it e.g., async repl can be run in the same thread alongside the rest of the app.

I can't remember a single case there Python's dynamism weren't enough for the task (most of the times it is the opposite--there could be less dynamism).
