Some people (like myself, or the coworkers of [this
person](https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/thread/PLXOXKACKGXN4ZKISDVXLKMFIETWTF63/))
just like to use asserts as a convenient way to check things. We don't want
asserts to ever be turned off. Maybe there could be some kind of compiler
directive which means "in this file, even with -O, keep the asserts". Maybe the
line `assert __debug__`?
