a lot of KDE code is written this way. It will end up crashing in both
debug and release, but in debug the message will be clearer. I think
this makes sense for cases where you think it is very unlikely that the
condition will not be met. I also think adding the conditional
everywhere often makes debugging harder because it prevents the crash.
That's the important part, sure, adding an if will make it not crash, but most
probably it won't do what you wanted either.
So instead of a clear crash that you can get reported and hopefully fixed, you
get the app misbehaving but it's not so obvious to the user so you may not get
a report and it may never be fixed.
Cheers,
