I don't understand why you say that. Isn't learning and understanding based on feedback? If all the examples do is to show the same "assert passed" message, then what's the point in running the examples? Just reading a static page gives the same insight. You are able to modify them, of course, and see the modified asserts fail, and you may add a writeln statement yourself, but... having to modify each example to see some feedback is not a good default. I'd like to know if other people agree with you on this.
