Yes, this is a complete game-changer; I love showing experienced embedded engineers how to connect to the REPL, and poke live, interactive I2C or SPI at a peripheral. :)

I only wish Micropython had a real debugger (pdb).

#5026 was merged last year; it provides the sys.settrace primitive which paves the way for debugging support.

Still quite a lot of work left for pdb-like features but I'm optimistic it'll get there!
