printing to a console could enforce a flush, sync thread or other shenanigans.
usually setting a breakpoint would have the same effect and gives me the suggestion of a threading issue.
the problem wasnt that the print statement fixed the bug
the problem was that even if i removed the print statement and added a comment on that line, the bug would also be fixed
