I’ve run into some weird stuff with overloaded `show` methods, the root cause of which is this [https://discourse.julialang.org/t/dispatching-on-the-result-of-unwrap-unionall-seems-weird](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/dispatching-on-the-result-of-unwrap-unionall-seems-weird)

I’m not sure its related to your problem (in particular not sure why debug mode would matter), but there certainly are alot of the same ingredients as in your code snippet so figured I’d mention.
