Review comment:
       >  Could you also add this debug assert in your copy (before line 383) 
just for debug?
   
   i will consider. but it isn't that reproducible anyway.
   if they are expected to be always true, why don't you just add them?
   
   btw, what's the motivation of this PR?
   it seems that it's proven the old way was actually more reliable than the 
new way...
