+Please keep in mind that `debug` is downloaded,
+installed, transpiled and used millions of times
+*per day*. If you have an error with `debug`, it's
+most likely your own configuration (e.g. with Babel,
+Webpack, etc).
+
+Unless you post ample evidence you have tried
+to fix this yourself, it will most likely
+be determined that your issue is localized
+to your project - not `debug`.
