I can't tell if it's a parody or an actual genius idea.

I would like to see the debugger give a list of all these boolean values and watch them toggle in real time. That would be far more useful.

fwiw I opened an issue on the vs code repo. It already got a downvote and the issue was reassigned from one maintainer to another. Popcorn is tightly secured.

Eh, I'll stick with C# slowly becoming more and more syntax-redundant like all the other OOPLs :'(

No there is AT LEAST one use for this. You could create an options class with booleans, and you could toggle settings when running or debugging. Also less savvy people (other non software engineers) can toggle settings easier for internal tools.
