No offense to you personally (since you're certainly not the only one to
make this conclusion), but that's a short-sighted and possibly dangerous
stance to take. The debug roms have those checks in them to tell you of
something that you're doing, which is almost certainly wrong.
You're probably drawing to the screen before there's a valid window to draw
to. Up until now the worst thing that could happen is that you'd be
wasting cycles, and/or drawing in the wrong color and you'd end up with an
ugly screen which users would immediately notice as sloppy if their system
colors weren't all (or mostly) black and white. But in the perhaps
not-too-distant future, something much worse might happen. We said at
PalmSource this year that devices will come out with different sorts of
screens, and this might well affect something along those lines...
The debug roms are giving you clear warning of a problem that needs fixing.
Don't ignore them!

Disclaimer: on some rare occasions the warnings can be a little too strict.
But that's very unusual. Don't assume you're in the <1% case :-) And
again, you're not the only one to think something like this, so I'm very
much writing this for other people's benefits as well.
