Collecting the traces can cost some performance, but that is a small price to pay for the advantages and could even be turned off in production builds.

They clearly intend this post for developers.

But yeah I want my stacktraces… in my IDE/debugger where I can see them and jump the stack. Most of the time I just need the head, where the breakpoint (or crash) is.

They also complain about rust where you can RUST_BACKTRACE=1 <program>. The default error tells you so !
