I would expect someone who spends more time developing code with the
compiler to spend at least a little effort reading the two lines of
documentation for -release and understanding that it disables the
runtime assert checks.

I've the same reasoning every time I see big threads about installers: I
simply go with the zips for every platform I use D on.

assertions.
2. What has this thread to do with installers vs. zips?
