This just feels bad. Adding extra failsafes for my debug

Then use `enforce()`.
So, to clarify, adding asserts to my code makes my release
builds violate @safe?
Only if the assert does not hold, you have _not_ tested it, and a
future optimiser will use the assert expression for some hints
that generated broken code.
At the end, I'm with Walter: you should have tested the code with
the assert enabled, and you should have noticed that the assert
it's not holding _before_ running the code in release without
them.
