Suggestions aren't requirements :-)

"Potential value" is a value of zero, if not a negative value.  If some
debug output has real and current value (which are two sides of the same
coin), it will be apparent to every reader.  Debug output that isn't
useful currently is throw-away, and should be thrown away.  It is easy
to recreate (it is a totally boring number of print statements after
all), and you can pull it from git history anyway.
