Closes #1795

Comments and discussion are welcome. Additionally, I'd love if people can share DS logs of various problems that they encountered while on the field. Lots of code related issues that are identified at compile time are not usually present when on the field.

Just found this while staring at the other troubleshooting issues. I'll merge the content into my PR. If this one goes first that's still fine, the content should be preserved as I add on more stuff and reorganize.
