Václav Brožek <v...@google.com> added the comment: As for the assert misspellings raising AttributeError -- that's not true of all of them, only those starting with "assret" or "assert" [1].
In my company, we recently cleaned up a bunch of other assert-misspellings, including cases where a real bug was masked in the code by that. That's why I filed https://bugs.python.org/issue41877. IMO, the fact that the assert-misspellings issue is not completely fixed seems to increase the motivation to add a module-level assert. While it's easy to add further misspellings to the check in [1], the general solution proposed in this ticket avoids a length whack-a-mole for code owners who would be able / willing to switch to a module-level assert.
