It depends on the domain. Any complex long lived mutable state, precise memory management or visual rendering probably benefits from debuggers.

Most people who work on crud services do not see any benefit from it, as there is practically nothing going on. Observing input, outputs and databases is usually enough, and when it's not a well placed log will suffice. Debuggers will also not help you in distributed environments, which are quite common with microservices.
