Doubling the expense for assert builds so that we get a slightly
better stack trace in the event our assumptions are wrong doesn't seem
like a good tradeoff. It means everyone running an assert build pays
the price twice to save a few moments of scanning the backtrace in a
situation that's (hopefully) highly unlikely to occur in practice.
