I definitely don't have insightful answers to these questions, just the ones I gave in the sibling comment an hour before yours. How could someone who uses LLMs be expected to know anything, or even be human?

Alas, I did not realize I was being held to the standard of having no bugs under any circumstance, and printing nothing to the console.

I have removed the amateurish log entries, I am pitiably sorry for any offense they may have caused. I will be sure to artisanally hand-write all my code from now on, to atone for the enormity of my sin.
