not exactly.
the point was (to reiterate): if u find yourself wasting time debugging
the 'core logic' in your code, then u have a serious design problem
needed to be thought out well first! so for software that
does lots of logic or 'thinking', it needs to be designed first before
being sent to the keyboard.
but! it's perfectly ok to debug on the keyboard eating up all the time in
the world to squish out implementation-specific bugs like: errors opening
files, errors allocating memory, fixing seg faults...
