Uh? By default, ASDF 3.0.1 does not intercept any error, much less
without allowing you to do a proper backtrace. I'm not sure what
you're talking about. The precious few handler-case in asdf are around
quite delimited functions, most of the time we use handler-bind or
restart-case, that do not prevent backtraces.

On the other hand, I didn't find a way to print interesting backtraces
on ECL. I would really appreciate if you would improve on
uiop/image:raw-print-backtrace, as compared to just calling
si::tpl-backtrace which doesn't seem to do much in most cases.

I'm not sure what you're trying to do. Can you provide an example?

Is it true that in the USSR the pay does not correspond to the work? well
Incorrect. It corresponds fully. They pretend to pay and we pretend to work.
