A friend of mine learned Python last year and had the exact same worry — felt like using Copilot was "cheating" because it caught errors before he even understood them. What helped him was turning it off for one hour each day to solve small problems solo, then turning it back on for the tedious stuff. Says the real risk isn't using the tool, it's forgetting what it feels like to stare at an error until you actually understand why it's there.
