Comment (by Adam Johnson):
> It sort of misses the point of Python IMO...
Sure, but that doesn't stop someone seeing their code is slow, trying it,
and leaving it in place.
> Maybe a system check for DRF is a good idea…
If a system check is a good idea on DRF I don't see why it wouldn't be a
good idea in Django itself. Putting it in DRF it would effectively force
79.5%* of the ecosystem to not use `-O`, so we'd be most of the way. Even
if django itself stops using `assert` there's an unknown amount of code in
third party libraries etc. using it.
