> I'm not allowed to hook a debugger up to anything in the staging environment

That seems crazy to me. What bizarre excuse does your organization have for that policy?

To me, part of the point of a staging environment is to provide something as close as practical to prod in which to test, reproduce, evaluate, and investigate issues, be they performance, correctness, or what have you.

Honestly, does it even matter?

Even if it were allowed, it would still be awkward. I want to, as much as is practicable, find problems as early as possible, and not wait for them to get all the way to staging. I'm not really interested in making myself less able to do my job effectively just because I can.
