This kind of stuff is why I stopped teaching and mentoring. It's like trying to convince creationists with facts.
Also, it's wide knowledge programmers spend the vast majority of time debugging. The other day I wasted an hour because a popular high level language doesn't warn users when comparing apples to oranges. I've spent on ocassion a lot of time chasing bugs in cloud services that make debugging close to impossible, too. There's no free lunch.
