[New-bugs-announce] [issue34880] About the "assert" bytecode

[vtheno athena]

New submission from vtheno athena <a2550591 at gmail.com>:

When I was involved in the YaPyPy project, I found a problem, An source "assert 0" will compile to an bytecode, On that bytecode sequence, it always raise a "AssertionError" from global, when we rewrite global "AssertionError" like here:
```
class AssertionError(Exception):
    def __init__(self,msg):
        self.msg = f"User AssertionError: {msg}"
        # other code
``` 
so, "assert" is meta-programming?
