Right. But my understanding was that was only when you were
actually
compiling with debug enabled. I didn't expect it to be a
feature to be
able to do this without debug enabled, as it currently is.
Yeah, being able to just enable the debug blocks from within the
code like
that seems questionable to me and has nothing to do with debug
blocks
disabling pure functions. It just makes for a nastier side effect
when debug
blocks are enabled within the code rather than via the
command-line.
