no, an assert is sort of "program by contract": you make it clear that this 
situation ought to not happen, and it if does, at least some people may notice 
that

and an explicit mention/comment in the code never killed anyone, nor made the 
code "cluttered"; also what is valid today might change in the future, so 
writing down why a check/assert was added make sure that people reading the 
changed documentation know why it made sense when it was added
