VS's debugger can watch arbitrary expressions, but it's not necessarily what you want (and admittedly isn't always reliable, or causes severe performance issues depending on the language etc.). What I'd really like is the ability to set breakpoints anywhere at all on a line, including a line like `xyz.map(_ -> ...).filter(_ -> ...)` such that, e.g. I can set a breakpoint between map( ) finishing and filter being called such that I can see what the map function has returned/what will be passed to filter, and of course at any point inside the lambda functions. And it's not just VS (or even VS code), but Chrome DevTools, XCode, IntelliJ/Android Studio etc. etc.
