Description

Currently the logic just checks for its existence, we should respect if it's set to 1 (rather than requiring the variable to be removed)

Research direction

Search the C++ codebase for the DebugWait variable and inspect the logic that currently checks only whether it exists. Confirm how its value is read and update the behavior so waiting is enabled only when the variable is set to 1; done means other values no longer trigger the wait.
