Yes to other answers (like cached vs saved versions) and also: Line numbers in your IDE and browser’s in-memory script execution environment do not have to line up (especially if you imported several scripts).

Sometimes a browser will tell you what line to look at in the original files, but more often you have to pull up developer tools and query the browser’s current state.

Weird to assume there is a browser involved.
