This sucks:

builtins.trace nix-your-shell.overlays.default nix-your-shell.overlays.default

This is also not great because it makes you restructure stuff around the expression:

let v = nix-your-shell.overlays.default;
 in builtins.trace v v;

Describe the solution you'd like

builtins.dbg my-big-variable

It should output something like this:

dbg: path/to/file.nix:34:11: my-big-variable = ...
