Do you have any actual users needing this? If yes, what are their use
cases?

Because I have this aversion towards adding functionality just because
and that it potentially might be useful and "users may want". Either
they do and they want to use it for X or we don't do anything... yet.

In this particular example, those debug printks are just useless noise
so off they go.

Thx.
