This sounds sensible, though I would need to test it myself. The 9-minute rule is underrated

Try making a tiny reproduction with no framework code. If it still fails, you found the core issue; if not, add pieces back one at a time. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near a neighborhood park

I disagree a bit. plan matters, but the bigger issue is usually expectations. This would of saved me a lot of trial and error

I would log the input, the expected output and the actual output first. Once those three are visible, the bug usually stops feeling mysterious. The low-effort version is probly the keeper

do you think this would work in a smaller place than Berlin? It reminds me of a very specific conversation near the train station

the safe answer is to keep the API boring: clear names, explicit errors and one behavior per function. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me
