Start by reducing it to the smallest reproducible piece, then change one variable at a time. You will learn more from a simple version repeated three times than from a perfect plan you never start.
- Write down the exact error and the input that caused it.
- Make a tiny example, then add pieces back slowly.
- Keep the final fix boring and well-named.
That should give you a solid first pass.

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 commute version is even more interesting.

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. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.

You just saved me a bad purchase.
