Indeed.

Unfortunately these "detailed rationales" consisted mostly of 
attacking straw men, and some other unsound arguments :(

My last reply to you is still unanswered if you want to give it 
another try. I feel like it's getting pretty childish though, so 
I'm also very close to giving up on this topic. So much 
back-and-forth we can't even get past definitions of assert and 
assume, or even agree that there is a difference between the 
two... never mind discussing the real issues here. And there 
definitely are real issues with your proposal to make -release 
transform all asserts into assumes.
