Debug info omitted by design with Release builds

Gabriel Lozano-Morán

Does anybody actually know why by design the debug info will be omitted when
compiling in Release mode? You would have to manually change this in the
advanced section of the properties I know I just want to know why this is
done?

Probably because this is the most common way.
