In Eclipse 4.28.0 (also previous versions) breakpoints cannot be set at lines with lambdas without curly braces. This requires you to refactor forth and back pieces of code utilizing curly braces and return statements, just for the sake of debugging them each time. This can get very tedious for many consecutive changes in such situations. JDK currently is Oracle JDK 11.0.18.

An example would be lambda test functions from within JUnit jupiter (5.93./1.9.3) 

assertAll(
  () -> ... , // 1) cannot set breakpoint at this line
  // >> 2) refactoring to this form is required, to set a breakpoint each time
  () -> { 
    ...  // 3) can set breakpoint at this line for debugging
  },
  () -> ... , // 4) need to revert back to original form manually
);
