Your response doesn't do a lot to convince me that "debugger" is anything more than a dev tool you like. It is not the only way to see what a program is doing while it's doing it -- there are plenty of other effective ways. I have encountered many bugs where a debugger wouldn't have been a help at all.

To be totally honest, having such an absolutist view makes you look inexperienced -- and accusing people who disagree of "malpractice" is absurd.
