Imagine you have 1000 lines of code that call 50 or so

that function might be significantly less than 1000 (maybe a handful).
Won't you be able to see exactly which function failed in the stack
trace? Or
does it not show up, because the invariant is checked _after_ the
function
call? I would still think that the stack trace would make it fairly
clear even
if that's the case.
If you get one (that is human decipherable). This doesn't always happen.
But like Walter and you said, the order is irrelevant to the execution of
the program, why make the developer work harder than he has to? It makes
no sense to me *not* to change it.
