Shouldn't everything under the feature do the same thing though?

Eh? It does

You can pick and choose which debugging output you want, but it might be nice if you could specify a filehandle for the output...

#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict;
use warnings;
use Capture::Tiny qw/ capture /;
use Data::Dump qw/ dd /;

my $string = 'd"alice';

my( $stdout, $stderr, $exit ) = capture {
    use re 'Debug', 'ALL';
    no re 'Debug', 'COMPILE';
    $string =~ s/\bd\"//g;

};

$string =~ /alice/;
dd( $stdout, $stderr, $exit , $string );
__END__
