If user input can trigger an assert, then the code should raise a normal exception that will not disappear with -OO.
May I assert that -OO should instead be killed?
"I don't care about embedded devices" is not a good rationale for killing features that really only benefit people running Python on such systems.

Or more importantly, how removing assert does. And how not naming it --remove-asserts would not help (people really have an opinion it would optimize their code)
