To me, the whole idea of managing scope is antiquated and not particularly useful. It assumes a fixed up-front plan from which you can deviate. It assumes a schedule based on that up-front plan. However, scope defined upfront does not work, and it never has.

Assertions seem extreme: they don't throw exceptions, they crash the process. Yet continuing after a violation is worse than crashing.
Shut it down. Enable assertions in production
