Ethan, What if all of the debug message are removed? Library especially very fundamental like ConfigBlock is better to be quite. It's the ConfigBlock API designer's responsibility to ensure the error is returned properly to caller, otherwise it's the API's bug. When the API can return correct status out, it's caller's responsibility to check the status and do proper handling of the errors.
With the debug message added in this fundamental library, it may give callers wrong impression that the library itself can handle the error and callers don't need to check the error status. If we search code in MdePkg, quite few debug messages are printed out from library code.
