should only be used for programming errors, a typical use case is
checking for invalid parameters at the beginning of a public function.
They should not be used if you just mean "if (error) return", they
should only be used if you mean "if (bug in program) return".
The program behavior is generally considered undefined after one of these
checks fails. They are not intended for normal control flow, only to
give a perhaps-helpful warning before giving up.
