Except for the minor fact that most early boot debugging happens long
before the console subsystem is even available..

At the risk of perpetuating the stupidity of this thread.. If you ship a
device to a customer expecting them to debug it for you, you are likewise
not likely to be very commercially successful, either. Devices are not
shipping with consoles, period. If you disagree with this, you've
obviously never shipped a device.
