Data point: I use -O.¹ Not frequently, not usually, but I have a few
large² programs that I add features to from time to time and will
doubtless continue to do so. I need their __debug__-enabled diagnostics
and asserts during development and testing. When I run them "for real",
I use -O.
Of course, since I never use annotations, type hints or whatever, this
may not be very relevant to this thread.

¹ Which makes me "almost nobody" - well, I knew that already. 😁
² Your idea of "large" may not be the same as mine - I'm talking a few
thousand lines.
