Why not? Users can always provide their customizations via
'display-buffer-alist'. Using, for example
(push '("*Backtrace*" (display-buffer-reuse-window display-buffer-pop-up-frame)
(reusable-frames . t))
display-buffer-alist)
The argument provided by 'debug' is for users who don't intend to
customize the behavior.
