The assert validates some assumptions the code has about the format of features string VM produces. And feature names are controlled by JVM (JVM assigns names itself). If there's a mismatch, something is really broken. Why do you think it makes sense to be defensive here and try to recover if the checks fail? ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/24462#issuecomment-2810842069
