I'm a supporter to add *more* checks to the debug build but also provide a Python runtime compiled in debug mode which would be ABI compatible (no need to rebuild C extensions).

See my large project:

   https://pythoncapi.readthedocs.io/

Especially:

   https://pythoncapi.readthedocs.io/runtimes.html#debug-build

It would avoid any overhead at runtime for the regular runtime (compiled in release mode).

Only we would have such "debug runtime" available, I even plan to remove runtime checks from the release build :-)
