I find the opposite, actually. I export my bank statements to an excel sheet each month (mostly to figure out how to divide expenses between my girlfriend and I, but also just for general bookkeeping), which I can only do with debit/credit transactions unless I save receipts from cash ones. To that end, I try to avoid using cash for anything but small transactions that I don't care about tracking.

You do you man. I will say though I tend to budget by using a spreadsheets so I can see why having back statements can be useful for finical tracking. I was more referring to having x amount of cash in my pocket and thus not being able to overspend even if I want to. This is mostly a issue when I go out drinking as "one more drink" is never just once more drink so having cash and forcing myself to only spend that amount by only having that amount on me is a preference. Also some places only accept cash or the machine is broke so juggling between the two sucks for me. Being as I'm carrying cash anyway I see no point using my card.
