And i have the feeling for good reason: Understanding when the code will be executed is a big part of debugging.

True. If I forget the detour points from a previous debugging session, I'm going to have a bad time.

And the need to detour suggests the code is poorly debuggable.

Indeed. Unfortunately that's nothing you get to choose, so, the more important are better tools.
