This reminds me of the more generalised "I do not use IDEs". It's a fascinating kind of phenomenon similar to ludditism to me where programmers reject the very premise of their own existence: that computers are capable of adding value or assisting with a task. It feels to me that this is its own form of dogma, no better justified than people who lean on the IDE or the debugger to do everything.
I don't pull out the debugger very often, but knowing how and when to do that, and do it well is a significant tool in my arsenal. There are times when I can guarantee you I would have spent a massive number of hours or maybe never properly resolved certain bugs without doing it.
