This is an explanation.

Be careful with assert messages in debug mode.
Many (even inside Kicad) are something like sentinels.

For instance, on Linux, GTK generates a lot of useless asserts with a lot of applications
(noticeable when running this application from a console).

They are not necessary a very annoying problem, but perhaps just need a (minor) fix, but not
necessary inside Kicad.

Of course, if they happen just before a crash, this is an other story.
