I might be behind the curve on the pythonic approach there: what's wrong with asserts there?

As far as I know, assert should not be used outside of tests because while running python with -O (optimize) flag, it will remove the assert statements.

Will open a separate issue for this. We should have a discussion over asserts over there.
