Is autosquash a possibly dangerous operation?

A safety net, after you run "git stash", to validate that the
added "git stash" indeed made the working tree clean, is necessary
below, but there does not seem to be any.

Delaying to run "git stash" as much as possible is fine, but with
the above, can the user tell if something was stashed and she has
to "stash pop" once she is done helping the command to resolve the
conflicts, or she shouldn't run "stash pop" after she is done
(because if nothing is stashed at this point, that "pop" will pop an
unrelated stash)?
What protects the "git stash" from failing and how is its error
handled?
