I find it easier to debug because:

1.The context switches across business functions are fewer and more closely follow the mental model (role-based) than the programmer model (domain-based);

2. Inclusion polymorphism is almost completely gone. When I call foo I get foo: not one of many foos up and down the subtyping hierarchy.

3. I can find a test point for something of business value: that is, I can really do BDD. That makes it easier to develop test cases to support debugging.

4. I do less run-time debugging because the code is more readable at compile time.

I do not understand your claim of why it's harder to debug. Do you have a running example? Try debugging the examples in the book manuscript.
