If you prefer debugging over testing is because you didn't invest time in testing in the earlier stages of the project. Now you've thousands of lines of code without coverage, and to test anything you've to mock a ton of services. Do yourself a favor and add tests from the start.

PRs were created to protect the code from contributions from people outside the team of maintainers. If your team is the project owner and can fix any error ASAP, then why delay the code from being delivered, especially when it's published to dev env first?.
