Comment:
An assert is fine here. Asserts are the right control structure for
checking that the programmer did what they were meant to do in any case,
since it's not user-supplied data (which would require a non-vanishing
error). Let's remember that this is Python: ask forgiveness, not
permission and all that. Paranoid pre-execution type checking isn't the
norm.
