It should be mandatory that all asserts, throws, etc provide correct information about not only the point of the error but also the location and what caused it. [...]

Error messages are sensible when they provide context (e.g. for complex conditions). In my experience, though, most asserts exist to cover fairly obvious cases, where an additional message would just add noise:

---
struct SomeRange
{
    bool empty() { ... }
    void popFront()
    {
        assert (!empty);
        ...
    }
}
