I started programming with scripting languages so mainly had to rely on print statements. I also worked in production support and QA in the past - print statements are the main tools over there. Even though I am programming in languages like Java/Go/Python now that have proper debugger support, all that history has resulted in me relying mainly on print statements. Also my print statements are now more carefully structured to provide almost a narrative to help support/QA folks (and myself) - I don't want them to suffer like I did due to lack of well designed log statements.
