Review Comment:
   Thanks for the review @singhpk234 ! 
   Checking exception message is not an uncommon pattern within [iceberg repo 
](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Ficeberg+%22getMessage%28%29.contains%22&type=code),
 it helps target particular scenarios that were thrown in a more generic 
exception type. Refactoring the exception itself will require TableMetadata 
change which increases risks. 
   I'm trying to minimize the change to get this issue fixed as per my 
understanding of the 
[comment](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/15001#issuecomment-3781759936)
 on the issue. As my original idea was to add an UpdateRequirement to the spec 
for this assertion. 
   Any thoughts?
