I can't tell if it's a parody or an actual genius idea.

    I would like to see the debugger give a list of all these boolean values and watch them toggle in real time. That would be far more useful.

    No there is AT LEAST one use for this. You could create an options class with booleans, and you could toggle settings when running or debugging. Also less savvy people (other non software engineers) can toggle settings easier for internal tools.
