However I'm sure that for many of these cases, we could do better by:
 - writing a script that just does it.
 - fixing the error message to be more readable
 - adding a convenience API


Yes.

When you want to change a situation, you have to

a) propose a new solution
b) remove the work-arounds which favours the statu quo.

Unfortunately, Tips & Tricks to work around annoyance favours the statu quo.

In many cases, I agree. In this particular one, I don't. We have all the tools necessary to accomplish the goal (debugging deep within a page test), we just have to document the tools so people can know about them!
