+/**
+ * The entire purpose of this function is for use to debug values inline
+ * without changing the flow of the code too much.
+ *
+ * This **MUST** be a non-arrow function to allow access to the `arguments`
+ * object.
+ *
+ * This function expects at least one argument.
+ *
+ * If more than one argument is provided, then:
+ * a) the last argument is considered the value, and will be returned
+ * b) all other arguments will be converted to string and output
+ *
+ * If only one argument is provided, it is considered the value, and will be
+ * returned.
+ *
+ * Zero arguments is an error condition.
