Having readable backtraces when something goes wrong is far more valuable to me ...

Edit: maybe there is some confusion. I'm talking about minifying the tooling, not end user code.

The tools should be minified to reduce their download size and make them run faster (quicker parsing).

Then no one would ever minify. Minify makes it faster to download and install (even in some cases it can make the code faster due to some optimizations though I wouldn't bank on it). You minify deployments and, if someone needs to debug, switch to a debug version of the code.
