But could it harm to add an 'inhibit-same-window' for other cases?

Anyway, could you provide a patch?  To be honest, I don't grok the
idea of 'debugger-previous-window' in

              (pop-to-buffer
               debugger-buffer
               `((display-buffer-reuse-window
                  display-buffer-in-previous-window)
                 . (,(when (and (window-live-p debugger-previous-window)
                                (frame-visible-p
                                 (window-frame debugger-previous-window)))
                       `(previous-window . ,debugger-previous-window)))))

any more and am afraid to do more damage than fix anything.
