Hi, The documentation of `assert` ([https://php.net/assert)](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.assert.php)) states that's debugging only. This is further enforced by php.ini flags to disable assertions in production.
Why are the use cases of this feature being limited to debugging? We can see from the popularity of user-space assertion libraries, like [webmozart/asset](https://packagist.org/packages/webmozart/assert) and [beberlei/assert](https://packagist.org/packages/beberlei/assert), that there is a need for runtime assertions.
