All in all, John is very non-committal about the whole thing.
I think you misunderstood what the original post and Guillaumes
disappointment was about. Walter claims that John agrees that UB on
failure is the best default -release behavior for assertions. John
rather explicitly states the opposite in the article.
Being non-committal about whether assertions should be enabled in
production or not just means that the language should provide both
options. D does not. Assertions are always enabled: either they are
checked or they are used as assumptions.
