Someone will write something like this:
assert(plainPassword == plainPassword.toLower());
and plaintext passwords will end up in stderr.
That's an instance of assert abuse, and we probably don't have
to be responsible for it. Such checking belongs in enforce,
or an explicit check with an exception throw, NOT an assert.

Not necessarily. It could just be a defensive assert for
something that should already have been verified/cleaned/caught
earlier.
auto pass = getPassword();
pass.clean();
assert(pass == pass.toLower());
//and on we go ...
It could even be in an `in { }` block
