So why would installing another debugger be easier?

But this isn't a debugger. It's just instrumenting a function with some very verbose logs.

But it's harder to install this, import it, and add a decorator than it is to type "breakpoint()".

It might be easier than migrating to 3.7, and then typing "breakpoint()"

That requires an interactive session, for example starting the program yourself from the command line.
