"eliminate debt ASAP"

This doesn't seem like the best advice IMO.

Debt is like one of the best tools that exists to grow your wealth.

That's fair. I'm viewing it from the perspective of how to protect one's self from sudden & possibly long-term job loss, where I think there's a lot of value in having one less thing hanging over your head during a stressful time. But building an even bigger buffer to further weather that period is a fine strategy, too.
