From my experience, the practical consequences of turning on a device for development are an increase of levels of logged data and access to these logs. (I'm not sure if logs are activated for all apps or just those you develop yourself.).
It installs a development profile certificate on your device. Code signed by these certificate will be accepted to run on the device.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
