Why does nobody talk about using print statements to debug JavaScript in VS Code?

I was stuck on a loop for 45 minutes at my desk today, so I just started throwing console.logs everywhere to see where my variable was breaking, and it finally clicked. Has anyone else found a better trick for tracing issues without using a full debugger?

Nothing fancy but adding a watch expression in the debug panel helped me skip the print statements.

Watch expressions just clutter the panel, print statements are fine.
