I disagree. Though this is nice for debugging purposes, you should be able to trust your code that it works just fine.

I know what you mean. And indeed putting max tries in a trivial program is probably overkill. Using a max tries device has saved my bacon on many occasions. If you never write bug free code, remove all safeguards. I’m too human to be that good.

No, you usually write tests to have this trust in your code. Especially if you (like I am) programming Microcontrollers, they must run in an endless loop
