Actually, you do have an update and a delete Trigger in Unidata. : LIST.TRIGGER CUSTOMER BEFORE UPDATE TRIGGER: not defined BEFORE DELETE TRIGGER: not defined
As for the debugging issue, I have always written programs to test the subroutine prior to using it as a trigger. Yes, I can see the need to debug in a live environment. Now, I am not sure about the issues in UniVerse, yet you may want to try to save off the input parameters in the trigger program if it fails, and then work with a copy of the subroutine, not attached to the file as a trigger.

However, triggers (plural) is really a misnomer as you can only put one trigger (singular) on a UniData file.
