Debt leads to malinvestments which plant the seeds for the future destruction of the system only propped up in the traditional world by bailouts.
Austrian business cycle theory and understandings of credit expansion should shy you away from advocating for this, but you want to be stubborn, then I suppose you can demonstrate the importance of the pain of consequences to learn that lesson instead.
I see both sides.
A future where everything is handled by something like the Bitcoin network and there isn't a need for a credit/debit system makes sense.
On the flip side, From Tycho he mentioned 2% of the worlds loans are overcollaterized. The rest are overwhelmingly undercollaterized.
