Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

IIRC, I think I put this here a long while ago when replacing or
removing a corresponding if-test that had always been compiled-in.  The
assertion was a way of validating that the refactoring and elimination
of tests had not broken anything.  If that was the case, I prefer to
leave this in, perhaps with some comment.  The control flow and known
conditions at each step are a bit hairy in this part of the code.
